Tuesdays @ Monk Space PRESENTS

For Ben: America’s best unknown composer

We are excited to welcome you back to Monk Space for a concert celebrating the life and music of American composer Ben Johnston, who passed away on July 21, 2019.

Members of Brightwork Ensemble will be joined by the Lyris Quartet and soprano Stacey Fraser to present both well-known and lesser-known masterpieces by Johnston, including the Suite for Microtonal Piano, Quartet #4 (Amazing Grace), Calamity Jane to Her Daughter, and Ponder Nothing.

You won’t want to miss this tribute to an artist hailed as “one of the best non-famous composers this country has to offer”.
