Programme Note

Resurgent interest in American composer Julius Eastman in the decades since his death in 1990 has brought both his mercurial musical output and his uniquely collaborative artistic approach to global attention. His 1974-piece Femenine unfolds from a simple oscillation between two notes into a vast and varied sonic canvas shaped by its performers. It sits at the heart of this programme from The Chimera Ensemble, alongside new works by students.
