SUMMARY:Album Release Concert: "An Unopened Seashell" by  Composer Yi-Ting Lu
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate Yi-Ting Lu’s debut album with a live concert and reception!\n\n\nAn Unopened Seashell\nBy Composer Yi-Ting Lu\n \nAlbum Release Concert and Reception\nFriday\, May 24\, 7:00 PM-8:30 PM \n\nCelebrate with us at the release concert for Yi-Ting Lu’s debut album\, An Unopened Seashell. \nThe album features five solo works for classical guitar\, harp\, piano\, bassoon\, and saxophone\, inviting listeners to explore each piece as if uncovering hidden sounds within a “seashell\,” akin to opening an unread book and immersing themselves in each instrument’s rich sound world. \nThe evening will present three solo compositions from the album\, a duo composition for soprano and bassoon\, and a collaborative music-animation piece with Japanese-based animators muzhi Leng and stina-uka. \n \nPerformers: \nHarp: Ben MelskyBassoon: Ben Roidl-WardClassical Guitar: Dan LippelSaxophone: Sam AlvarezSoprano and Bassoon DUO: Pushback Collective (Ally Smither and Ben Roidl-Ward) \nAlbum Artwork design: Ray Weng \nThe album will be released by New Focus Recordings on May 11. \n \nLight refreshments will be provided at the reception. \n\n\n\n \nAbout the Composer: \nYi-Ting Lu\, born and raised in Taiwan and currently based in Chicago\, is a composer whose works often reflect and reshape live scenes or experiences through fragmented acoustic sounds. Concepts of transcultural exchanges and collectivity can be discovered within her music. \nLu has received several awards such as the Carl Kanter Prize for orchestral composition\, the William T. Faricy Award for creative music\, and the Gerts and Hammond and Farewell Award from the Musicians Club of Women. Other distinctions include the Nief-Norf Festival International Call for Score Winner\, Transient Canvas Composition Fellowship\, and an honorable mention at the DeGaetano Composition Institute.
