Ruckus
Earl and Darielle Linehan Concert HallThe Department of Music presents RUCKUS, the faculty new music ensemble at UMBC, in a concert that highlights the work of pivotal American composer George Lewis. Working with Lewis in residence at UMBC, RUCKUS explores the striking breadth of his work from the elegiac intensity of Signifying Riffs to the haunting, ecstatic sound world of Hexis. Flutist Lisa Cella presents the world premiere of Lewis’s Dark Matter for solo bass flute and live electronics. Two raucous, virtuosic works by Viet Cuong and David Lang complete an eclectic portrait of American music in the 21st century.
