FAdventurous chamber music! Enjoy Close Encounter With Music's world premiere of composer Tamar Muskal's "One Earth." In the words of Muskal, “We live in a very challenging time—a time of war, sickness, climate disasters, and economic difficulties. 'One Earth,' for a rapper/beatbox artist, table player, string quintet and a treble chorus, calls all people to positive action, to love, to beauty, and to anything that protects the planet and humanity. The piece is rich in sonorities, a fusion of different musical worlds, and contrasts between energetic rhythms, lyrical melodies and powerful rapping.”
