Guest Artists: Sur Incises

The 2023 PRISMS Contemporary Music Festival presents Re-Works. This year's festival features an exciting lineup of composers and performers who are exploring the many ways in which music can re-imagine, re-conceive, and re-envision existing music, and the diversity that arises from those sonic conversations.

From the virtuosic Desahogo by Nicaragua’s Yader Ugarte to the cutting-edge sounds of ASU’s composition faculty, from the monumental Sur Incises by France’s Pierre Boulez to new works by emerging composers and electronic music for ambisonic dome, PRISMS explores the ways in which music can be used to express the unique perspectives of different cultures, and how the notion of Re-Work acts as a lens through which to understand these diverse musical traditions.
