Constantinides New Music Ensemble to Perform at Carnegie Hall
October 15, 2021
The LSU School of Music is pleased to announce that the Constantinides New Music Ensemble will travel to New York City to perform at Carnegie Hall on April 8, 2022.
Rescheduled from October 2020 due to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Carnegie Hall program will consist of repertoire composed by LSU students at all levels of study, as well as LSU faculty and alumni. Composers went through a competitive adjudication process to be selected; a committee of faculty reviewed over 4 hours of music for inclusion in the 100-minute program.
Many of the selections will be previewed at the ensemble's fall concert on November 10, 2021.
