Byrne:Kozar:Duo
Corrine Byrne & Andy Kozar, Soprano & Trumpet Duo

Performing works by Rob Deemer, Reiko Füting, Paula Matthusen, David Smooke, Scott Wollschleger and Scott Worthington. The Byrne:Kozar:Duo presents historically informed performances of Baroque music for natural trumpet and soprano in addition to commissioning new works for modern trumpet and soprano. They have been said to create 'an arresting symbiosis in their melding of voice and trumpet timbres' (Textura) and that the 'trumpet and voice seem to take on one another's qualities' (Bandcamp Daily). Visit byrnekozarduo.com for more information about the group.

NakedEye Ensemble
presents Time's Illusion

“Time’s Illusion” is a collaborative commissioning project between NakedEye and The National Watch and Clock Museum (the largest specialized museum of horology in the U.S.). Both  are based in Pennsylvania. The museum contains not only a plethora of physical time pieces, but an incredible richness in the variety of sounds used to keep time over the centuries. Six composers active on the East Coast new music scene – Stefanie Lubkowski, Florent Ghys, Delaware County Community College professor Richard Belcastro, Monica Pearce, Rusty Banks, and Whitney George – were commissioned to write a work incorporating recorded live sounds from the time machines in the museum. Each one brings something charming, unconventional, and a little bizarre to the experience of story-telling in this evening-length multi-media work. NakedEye premiered “Time’s Illusion” at The National Watch and Clock Museum on June 9, 2018. Visit nakedeyeensemble.com for more information about the ensemble.
