SUMMARY:Interwoven - Guest Artist Series
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets\n$20 general admission\nStudents free (ticket required) \nMead Witter School of Music Guest Artist Series \nInterwoven\nYoko Reikano Kimura\, koto/shamisen/voice\nKeiko Tokunaga\, violin\nHikaru Tamaki\, cello\nAndy Lin\, erhu/viola \n…… \nProgram \n \n…… \nPioneers of intercultural music that interlaces historic sonorities of Eastern Asia and Western Europe\, INTERWOVEN is currently in its fourth season as a chamber ensemble. Taking inspiration from its birthplace\, New York City\, where countless cultures coexist and thrive\, INTERWOVEN celebrates and integrates traditions\, aesthetics and communities from various heritages through performing\, commissioning\, and recording contemporary music. \nThe ensemble made its debut in October 2021 at the DiMenna Center for Classical Music in New York City\, with the funding from the City Artist Corps Grant. The group has since appeared in venues such as Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art\, Metropolitan Museum in New York City\, Wing Luke Museum in Seattle\, Roulette Intermedium in Brooklyn and Vancouver Civic Centre Annex\, among others. \nINTERWOVEN’s artistic goal is to see evidence of traditional Asian instruments or their sonority included in classical contemporary compositions and an increase in commissioning and performance of multicultural works written by diverse composers. The ensemble promotes the creation of new intercultural music by educating the young composers in universities and by commissioning from established composers who resonate with our beliefs. INTERWOVEN served as a guest artist-in-residence at the University of California Los Angeles\, Toronto University\, Longy School of Music in Massachusetts\, University of Kansas and Colby College in Maine\, working closely with composition and instrumental departments of the school. \nThe group is committed to introducing the sonority of traditional Asian music\, instruments\, history and culture to various American communities of non-Asian heritages. The ensemble received two major fundings for its original community project\, FantAsia!\, from Lower Manhattan Cultural Council in New York City and Canada Council for the Arts in 2023; FantAsia! is a musical event of an Asian folklore-inspired program that takes place in neighborhoods with the smallest Asian population in all boroughs of New York City and Vancouver\, BC. \nFounder and GRAMMY Award winning violinist\, Keiko Tokunaga\, brings together seasoned musicians who have been heard in major halls\, such as Carnegie Hall\, the Kennedy Center\, Radio City Music Hall\, and their equivalents in Europe\, Asia\, South America\, and Australia. Members of INTERWOVEN are passionate advocates for the importance of music in social\, personal\, and political developments\, and devote much of their time to teaching and educational outreach. The ensemble collaborates with educational institutions to promote the creations of multicultural musical compositions\, and to encourage active dialogues between students\, faculty and the community on socially crucial topics such as Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion in the music field and beyond.

SUMMARY:SoundWaves
DESCRIPTION:Free | No ticket required \nThis academic year\, SoundWaves is exploring scales. In this second edition\, we will be zooming out to the macro scale! \nSoundWaves combines scientific lectures about the world with live classical music performances. Each event revolves around a theme\, exploring it first from many scientific angles and then through the lens of music. The program concludes with a live performance of music related to the evening’s theme. \nThe science lectures are delivered using language that the curious layman can understand\, with a minimum of jargon and formulas. The music lectures\, while demanding careful listening\, are likewise designed for the layman and not the specialist. \nEvery SoundWaves event brings UW–Madison scientists from several departments together with Mead Witter School of Music faculty performers to explore a topic that is relevant to our world and our lives.

SUMMARY:University Symphony Orchestra - Student Ensemble Series
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets\n$20 general admission\nStudents free (ticket required)\nAlso streaming live \nPre-concert talk begins at 7 pm \nOriol Sans\, conductor\nJoseph Mahin\, graduate student conductor \nFeaturing Timothy Sachtleben\, cello\nWinner of the 2025 Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition \n…… \nProgram \nA journey through lights and shadows\, this program brings together four striking orchestral voices. The radiant exploration of motion and brightness of Jennifer Higdon’s Light will turn inward with Dmitri Shostakovich’s Second Cello Concerto\, a work of haunting intensity that offers a stark\, searching meditation marked by irony and grit. Timothy Sachtleben\, 2025 Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition winner\, will be the soloist.  \nIn Elysium\, Samy Moussa creates a luminous sound world suspended between stillness and awe; it is orchestral music that seems to breathe in slow\, glowing arcs\, just like the space where is was premiered\, La Sagrada Família in Barcelona. The concert will conclude with Leonard Bernstein’s electrifying Symphonic Dances from West Side Story\, where jazz\, Latin rhythms\, and symphonic sweep collide in a thrilling celebration of love\, passion\, and drama\, all with an unmistakable Broadway flair.
