Julius Eastman was one of the most exciting figures in American music from the 1960s through the 1980s. He was a pianist, conductor, an excellent singer, and–most enduringly–one of the most innovative composers of his time. We are thrilled to present three of his Minimalist masterpieces in concert. Kyle Marshall will premiere a new ISGM-commissioned dance, and revive one we commissioned four years ago, with a score for ten cellos!
