NEC Centennial Celebration of Earle Brown & Morton Feldman + Callithumpian Consort

New England Conservatory celebrates the centennial anniversaries of American composers Earle Brown and Morton Feldman, with special guest Christian Wolff.

NEC faculty Stephen Drury created the Callithumpian Consort in the belief that new music should be an exciting adventure shared by performers and listeners alike, and that the brand-new masterpieces of our day are beautiful, sensuous, challenging, delightful, provocative, and a unique joy. Callithumpian’s repertoire is the new and unusual, encompassing a huge stylistic spectrum from the classics of the last 100 years to works of the avant-garde and experimental jazz and rock. It is grounded in the musical discoveries of John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen, John Zorn, Giacinto Scelsi, Morton Feldman, and Iannis Xenakis.

The Earle Brown/Morton Feldman Centennial Celebration at New England Conservatory was made possible in part by a generous contribution from the Earle Brown Music Foundation Charitable Trust.
