Chamber Brews is a dynamic Columbus new music ensemble known for their multi-genre collaborations and uniquely interactive programming. The ensemble celebrates diverse musical voices by commissioning works, seeking distinct performance venues, and collaborating with highly artistic partners.
"inter/cepted" explores what happens when sounds, messages, and intentions cross paths. This program celebrates those unexpected intersections, turning moments of disruption into opportunities for connection, curiosity, and surprise. Works by Mohammed Fairouz, Terry Riley, Zachary Meier, and Pauline Oliveros bring their unique perspectives on culture, identity, and listening. Fairouz’s music crosses musical and cultural borders, inviting dialogue across traditions. Riley’s repetitive, playful patterns create a space where performers and listeners can find joy in shared discovery. Meier brings queer narratives and lived experience into the mix, highlighting voices that often go unheard. Oliveros invites us to listen deeply to each other, to the room, and to the music itself in ways that can be both profound and delightful. Across these works, the quartet celebrates interception as a connective act: music that surprises, invites, and brings people together.
Zach Hannah, the Johnstone Fund’s Poet in Residence, will recite a poem revealing his interpretation of the program.
