soundfestival 2019: Red Note with Nicholas Daniel (oboe) and Any Enemy

Three new works by three very different composers featuring Nicholas Daniel’s virtuosic oboe-playing, Red Note’s “wit and bright spirit” and a star appearance by local new music ensemble in a piece specially composed by Linda Buckley for the joint forces of both ensembles.

There will be a soundconversation with the composers after the performance.
