Claire Chase, a MacArthur Fellow and the 2017 recipient of the Avery Fisher Prize for Classical Music, offers an intimate presentation of new works from her ongoing Density 2036 project, a 24-year initiative to create a new repertory for the flute. Electroacoustic pieces by composers Suzanne Farrin, Anna Thorvaldsdottir, Liza Lim, Marcos Balter, and Phyllis Chen will be performed, alongside commentary by Chase. She will be joined by flutist Amir Farsi, a Density Fellow and Carnegie Hall Ensemble Connect Fellow, and by Ilaria Hawley, a 14-year-old flutist and composer who was the recipient of an ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composer Award.
