CONTEMPORARY MUSIC FOR CONTEMPORARY ISSUES


A concert of music by NACUSA Los Angeles chapter composers will bepresented on Saturday afternoon 2:00 PM, September 23, 2017 at theTustin Presbyterian Church in downtown Tustin, California.  The theme of the concert is “Contemporary Music for Contemporary Issues.”

If you have a piece (or can write a piece) loosely relating to contemporary “issues” please send a description including the name of the piece, its instrumentation and its duration to Richard Derby at richardderby@att.net by July 14th, 2017.  Details about the concert, including the pieces selected for the program, will follow at a later
date.

All composers must be members in good standing with NACUSA/LA.
Those who submitted for the earlier aborted concert at the Art Museum are invited to be on the program. Theme is “CONTEMPORARY MUSIC ON CONTEMPORARY ISSUES”

-          For this concert, composers will be asked to play or sing
their own works or to bring their own performers and instruments.

-          The venue does have a good piano that we can use.

-          There is parking in back of the church and on nearby streets.
