Fast Forward Austin teams up with Contagious Sounds for an evening of performances by FFA 2012 artists Owen Weaver and the Bel Cuore Sax Quartet, joined by special guests Vicky Chow and Concert Black.

This program offers a snapshot of the dynamic Austin new music scene, with music of a leading figure of the native scene – GRAHAM REYNOLDS – alongside compositions by emerging University of Texas, Austin- trained composers (and FFA co-founders) IAN DICKE, STEVEN SNOWDEN, and ROBERT HONSTEIN, among others. With special guests pianist VICKY CHOW and CONCERT BLACK, this appearance represents a first step in Fast Forward Austin’s mission to build greater connections between new music in Austin and the larger national scene.
