In The Game Changers Exhibition, Hughes WingCAM Members $15 | Non-Members $20 | Students Free
Experience the Game Changers exhibition with a night of contemporary music in the galleries. Presented in partnership with the University of North Carolina Wilmington, CAM welcomes the internationally acclaimed Greek ensemble, The Galan Trio, for a unique performance on their Kinesis Tour.
The concert features new works by composition faculty from leading universities across West Virginia, Virginia, and North Carolina including the world premiere of Game Changers by UNCW’s own Chelsea Loew, Assistant Professor of Music Theory and Composition. Loew’s Game Changers is a two-movement work composed in direct conversation with the exhibition. Developed over months of composing in the galleries, Game Changers is a musical interpretation of the visual language and artistic techniques of two paintings that hang side by side: Tiger’s Eye by Helen Frankenthaler and Cityscape #3 by Richard Diebenkorn. Join us in the galleries for this one of a kind musical experience.

About the Galan Trio:
Known for the passionate and energetic spirit of their performances, the Athens-based Galan Trio is active both in Greece and internationally. Focused primarily on presenting new compositions, the trio creates original programs, the most recent being Kinesis. For this project, Galan Trio commissioned five distinguished composers from the United States to write works on the theme Kinesis leading to their first tour in October 2021. The title “Kinesis” draws inspiration from both science and language. In biological terms, kinesis refers to an undirected movement in response to external stimuli. In Greek, it simply means movement or motion. For Galan Trio, motion embodies the essence of life—signifying continuity, transformation, and hope. Since 2021, the ensemble has presented Kinesis at more than 30 U.S. universities, with additional performances scheduled through fall 2025.
