Room 1078

Room 1078 is a working ensemble founded at the University of Michigan in 2015, now led by University of Iowa DMA alum Hanna Rumora.
Franghiz Ali-Zadeh draws on ancient Azerbaijani dance, while Aftab Darvishi takes an Ahmad Shamloo poem as her source. Bryce Dessner composed a meditation on impermanence after the 2019 Notre Dame fire built on a melody by the 12th-century composer Pérotin. Mario Galeano Toro immerses players in Colombian cumbia, Joan Jeanrenaud reflects on four decades as a member Kronos Quartet, Garth Knox launches a space odyssey, and Trey Spruance closes with a mystical triptych.
