CQ 2024: Luna Composition Lab Open Workshop

is thrilled to present Constellation, our 2024 Pride Month celebration of queer community, diversity, and excellence in chamber music! Featuring multiple live performances and workshops every day, ChamberQUEER 2024: Constellation runs Tuesday, June 11 through Sunday, June 16 at MITU580.

EVENT DETAILS

As part of a new collaboration between ChamberQUEER and Luna Composition Lab, a roster of CQ players will workshop commissions from LCL alumni Lili M. Namazi (2022–23) and Sage Shurman (2019–20) and a new arrangement by Devon Lee (2020-21) in preparation for performances of these new works in fall 2024. CQ musicians will then moderate a Q&A/talkback with the composers and audience.

Founded in 2016 by composers Missy Mazzoli and Ellen Reid, provides mentorship, education, and resources for young female, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming composers ages 13-18. Luna Composition Lab’s signature program—the Luna Lab Fellowship—offers six young composers one-on-one mentorship with professional composers annually. Luna Composition Lab is the only initiative of its kind in the United States and has achieved national recognition as a program that not only celebrates underrepresented voices, but also shapes music’s future by providing a support system for continued success. 

This partnership is made possible through the support of the New York Community Trust.
