New Years Concert/Party

Saturday, January 7th, 2017

Please join the NACUSA community for a concert/party to welcome in another year of new music. Deon has been hosting this informal gathering of L.A. composers and supporters since our late President Emeritus Marshall Bialosky initiated it. This year there will be a Silent Auction to raise much needed funds for upcoming concerts. (Our goal is to build audiences for new music without charging admission.) The auction will will be from 1:15 PM and the music will begin at 2 PM. Potluck refreshments, so you are welcome to bring a dish to share. RSVP to Deon Nielsen Price 310-838-4465 for location information.

We invite you to donate items for the silent auction (books, compact discs, dvds, music scores, objects des artes, “white elephants,” music accessories). Please send an email to jeanniegaylepool@gmail.com, with a description of the item (s) and a suggested minimum bid. You will be responsible for bringing the item to the event, or sending it ahead if you cannot attend. Bring cash or your checkbook - you might find a treasure!

Call for Scores - Lyris Quartet 

We are happy to announce a Call for Scores for a concert by the Lyris String Quartet. See CALL FOR SCORES for more details. The concert will feature the premiere of 'Improvisation for String Quartet' by Frank Campo in honor of the composer’s 90th birthday. The rest of the program will be chosen from works submitted by NACUSA-LA member composers. An anonymous donor has stepped up to underwrite the concert, so composers will not have to contribute funds, as had been earlier publicized.
