The concert begins at 7:30pm, preceded by a composer dialogue at 6:45pm, and followed by a reception, open to all audience-members.

Earplay is dedicated to the performance and recording of new chamber music. It’s an evolving genre where composers and musicians freely experiment with musical structure, rhythm, and sounds, challenging the audience to broaden its concept of music with new emotional and auditory experiences. Earplay concerts feature the Earplayers, a group of artists whose lyrical and ferocious style provides eloquent, vivid performances of today's finest chamber music. Founded in 1985 by a consortium of composers and musicians, Earplay has performed over 600 works by more than 350 composers in its 36-year history, including 158 world premieres and 93 new works commissioned by the ensemble.
