SUMMARY:Celebrating Cuban-American Composers
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating Cuban-American Composers highlights the music of multi-Grammy Award-winning Cuban-American composer Paquito D’Rivera. Hailed by the National Endowment for the Arts as “the consummate multinational ambassador\, creating and promoting a cross-culture of music that moves effortlessly among jazz\, Latin\, and Mozart\,” his music defies categories and he’s celebrated both for his artistry in Latin jazz and as a classical composer. Then enjoy Orlando Jacinto Garcia’s “Entrelazamientos” (“Entanglements”). Jacinto Garcia notes “the title refers to the term from physics were in a nutshell one particle in one corner of the universe can be connected to another particle on the other end of the universe and when something changes in one it affects the other.” Igancio Cervantes’s “Danzas” and Ernesto Lecuona’s iconic “Andalucia” round out an exciting program! \nThe performance will take place in Preston Bradley Hall at the Chicago Cultural Center and is free and open to the public. \nThe performance is the fourth in Crossing Borders Music’s six-concert series “Choosing Life and Freedom\,” featuring music by composers who responded to terrible tragedies with music affirming life and to oppression with music affirming freedom. \nAccessibility information here. \nThis program is partially supported by a grant from the Paul M.

SUMMARY:Recovering the Art of Eustasio Rosales
DESCRIPTION:Be among the first living people to hear the rediscovered music of Eustasio Rosales\, known as “Chicago’s first Hispanic composer!”\nEustasio Rosales (1875-1934) was a Colombian immigrant who came to Chicago seeking a better life. His music was celebrated in his lifetime\, including in performances by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. After his death\, though\, his music has languished in storage in his grand-daughter’s basement in Oak Park\, IL. So\, together on a quest with Rosales’s great-grandson Arlen Parsa and Mulati Ensemble and Ortegon School of Music founder Johanna Ortegon\, we dusted off the boxes of scores in the basement\, and prepared to share some of the first performances of his string quartet\, violin sonata\, serenade for violin and piano\, and two English language songs\, sung by guest artist Mulati Ensemble soprano Carolina Gomez. \nDuring the week before the event\, Parsa and Crossing Borders Music will make available his “The Way to Andina\,” a multi-award-winning funny documentary about Rosales and the journey to rediscover his music! \nParsa will co-host the livestream and be available to answer questions during the event. \nThe event will stream live on the Crossing Borders Music Facebook and YouTube channels. \nMarianne Parker\, piano\nJennifer Leckie and Rasa Mahmoudian\, violins\nJay Pike\, viola\nTom Clowes\, cello \nAidan Kranz\, videography\nMiyu Morita\, sound engineer \nThis program is partially supported by a grant from Illinois Humanities.\nThis program is partially supported by a grant from the Paul M. Angell Family Foundation.\nCrossing Borders Music acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.\nPictured: a black and white photo of composer Eustasio Rosales

SUMMARY:Voices of the Proud: LGBT+ Composers
DESCRIPTION:On the Sunday before Transgender Day of Visibility\, join us to celebrate LGBT+ culture with “Voices of the Proud: LGBT+ Composers”! The program features the beauty\, love\, grief\, playfulness\, creativity\, and pride of music by LGBT+ artists chosen from a call for submissions.\nThis event will be broadcast live on the Crossing Borders Music Facebook and YouTube channels.\nEnjoy Xenia St. Charles Gilbert’s “How to Spot a Trans Woman According to My Neurosurgeon\,” performed brilliantly by violist Seth Van Embden\, along with the clever wordplay of a voiceover by the composer herself!\nTony Doubek’s “Mind Over Matter” is his own\, brand new arrangement of the final movement what he calls his “3 movement piece depicting my experience living with Bipolar II” from his “collection of intensely personal pieces.” It is stunning\, intensely beautiful\, and hopeful.\nFrida V. de la Sota’s “elegía de una pandemia” captures the stillness\, mourning\, and grief of the almost universal sense of loss during the pandemic.\nThe livestream will share the world premiere of Rylan Gleave’s “biomimicry” for piano quintet. Rylan took the idea of biomimicry\, which he calls “the emulation of natural elements\, for the purpose of solving complex human problems” and asks\, “What if we apply this idea to music?”\nEthan Soledad’s lush and romantic “In effect it is this: that I love you” was “inspired by a love letter written by renowned WWI poet Wilfred Owen to his colonel\, mentor\, and fellow poet Siegfried Sassoon. Both literary legends were known for their raw depictions of the war in their poetry with Sassoon serving as a major influence to Owen’s own work. Both were also closeted homosexuals in a time and place where it was criminalized. Even so\, the incredible bond the two formed during their time together is so evident in the unrelenting love and admiration that Owen exemplifies in this letter.”\nMiguel del Aguila’s exciting and wild “Tamboreño” is a pandemic creation inspired by carnival parades in Miguel’s home town in Uruguay\, with electric musical energy!\nLeland Harris’s “In the Outside: Queer Dances” finds authentic joy in its playful rhythms!\nFeaturing Marianne Parker; piano; Jennifer Leckie and Rasa Mahmoudian\, violins; Seth Van Embden\, viola; and Tom Clowes\, cello; Aidan Kranz\, cinematography; with special thanks to Thavary Krouch for her technical support.\nThis program is made possible in part by the Paul M Angell Family Foundation and City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.\nCrossing Borders Music acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.\nPictured: composer Ethan Gonzalez Soledad\, sitting outside on a bench in a white button-down shirt and dark pants\, posing with a hand behind his head.
