On Friday, May 1st, for the second year in a row PIE will collaborate with the Hear Now Festival of New Music by Los Angeles Composers, with a concert showcasing the very best works selected from a call for scores. This year, PIE and Hear Now are partnering with Brightwork newmusic, a new music sextet consisting of a flexible and fearless group of world-class musicians: flutist Sara Andon, pianist Aron Kallay, cellist Roger Lebow, violinist Tereza Stanislav, pianist Nick Terry, and clarinetist Brian Walsh.

After a successful collaboration with the Hear Now Music Festival in 2014, this year PIE will once more bring an evening of electrifying new music to the scene. Hear Now annually features contemporary Los Angeles composers, and PIE is proud to showcase the music of composers venturing in the waves of the electroacoustic genre. This will be an event and collaboration not to be missed.

For the 2015 edition of this collaboration, this concert will feature Brightwork newmusic, a new music sextet based in Los Angeles, with a flexible and fearless group of world-class musicians: Aron Kallay (piano), Tereza Stanislav (violin), Brian Walsh (clarinet), Sara Andon (flute), Nick Terry (percussion), and Robert Lebow (cello). KPFK says, “Brightwork newmusic takes no prisoners, and leaves no listeners behind. Catch them…if you can.”
