eighth blackbird March 26, 2006

The dynamic new music ensemble eighth blackbird is hailed for its astounding musical versatility, traveling from coast to coast erasing prejudices about contemporary music with their perceptive communication, creative passion and musical wit. The group celebrates its 10th season by honoring composers Fred Lerdahl and Frederic Rzewski, whose works strongly influenced their first decade, and looks to the future with three Boston premieres by next-generation composers: Lucid, by Gordon Fitzell, Inescapable, by Ashley Fure, and Rhythms, by Marcus Maroney.
