In these intimate evenings of music and conversation, composers featured at the Schnitz perform and discuss works from the past and present that offer a window into their identities as artists and the ways in which they think about their world. In addition to featuring music crafted by the composers themselves and performed by members of the Oregon Symphony, these concerts will include music that inspires and informs their work.
So, grab a drink, bring a friend, and hear some of the most creative composers and thought leaders of our time offer a fascinating window into the creative process. Hosted by Oregon Symphony’s Creative Chair, Gabriel Kahane.
Violinist and composer Jessie Montgomery is one of the most sought after artists of her generation, blending the sounds of her upbringing in New York City with a deep knowledge of the classical repertoire.
