About this Concert

Art and music come together as SLSO musicians perform adventurous chamber music by composers of today, curated by composer Christopher Stark, within the galleries of the Pulitzer Arts Foundation.

Inspired by the exhibition Olga de Amaral: Weaving the Infinite, this eclectic program explores the intersections of textiles and folk traditions across the Americas. Hear works composed by Grammy Award–winning composer Donnacha Dennehy, Pulitzer Prize–winner Julia Wolfe, Martin Bresnick, and Adolfo Mejía that feature musical textures echoing the pattern of Amaral’s visionary works.

Doors open at 6:30pm.

- Known for works that explore the tension between poetry and rigid musical structure, Donnacha Dennehy’s music has been featured at festivals and venues around the world, including the Edinburgh International Festival, Carnegie Hall, the Royal Opera House in London, the Dublin Theatre Festival, the Kennedy Center, and more.
- An acclaimed artist, Julia Wolfe has received many awards, including the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in Music for Anthracite Fields, the Herb Alpert Award in Music, a MacArthur Fellowship in 2016, and Musical America’s Composer of the Year award in 2019.
- In 1945, Adolfo Mejía helped to found the Sociedad Pro-Arte Musical in Cartagena, Colombia, a revolutionary organization meant to organize musical festivals in Cartagena and introduce Colombia to the classical music scene.
