Meet the Composer presents a festival bringing new works by Chicago composers to New York. Chicago-based composer Marcos Balter's Aesopica revisits a selection of fables attributed to the mysterious Greek writer Aesop which, even twenty-six centuries after being written, continue to resonate with today's sociocultural issues. Commissioned by Meet the Composer and written for the members of ICE, this theatrical work is for audiences of all ages and is scored for narrator and ensemble plus electronics.
Also on the program are new works written for ICE's new music brothers-in-arms, So Percussion.
Marcos Balter (b. 1974): Æsopica (2011) WORLD PREMIERE
