Fresh, Delectable Sounds from Oregon Composers
Program:
Guest Artists: Nancy Ives, Evan Kuhlman, Tomas Svoboda,
Agnieszka Laska Dancers, and Gavin Larsen, Oregon Ballet Theatre principal dancer, joining Fear No Music: Inés Voglar, Joël Belgique, Mika Sunago, and Joel Bluestone.
As we prepare to honor Oregon's 150th anniversary of statehood, "fear no music" will participate in this historic event in its "fear no music" way by adding a fresh, musical twist to the excitement, festivities and pride associated with the anniversary.
Join fEARnoMUSIC for the world premieres of four new works, written especially for this grand occasion. Welcome emerging composer Ryan Francis, one of the promising graduates of fNM's Young Composers Project; hear supernatural sounds created by composer Bonnie Miksch, Professor of Composition at Portland State University; experience acoustical journeys by the daring Robert Kyr; explore new sounds by Robert Priest, Artistic Director of Marzena; and revel in the ballet version of Jilted by Robert McBride and Mama's Song by ALD Resident Composer Jack Gabel.
We are excited to collaborate with the Agnieszka Laska Dancers and Gavin Larsen, a lead dancer for the Oregon Ballet Theater, moving to the music of Tomas Svoboda, Jack Gabel, and Robert McBride. Also, featuring works by John Peel and David Schiff. This project is supported in part by a grant from the Oregon Cultural Trust, investing in Oregon's arts, humanities and heritage.

Greek for "a change," parallaxis gives rise to parallax, denoting the apparent change in an object viewed from different positions. Here, the positions are metaphorical: music and motion pictures as complementary angles. Curated in collaboration with Portland media studio Helsinqi, this concert pairs works by contemporary composers and film/video artists.
