“tête-à-tête”: A Contemporary Music Premiere with Philippe Hurel

French composer Philippe Hurel joins Paris- and Atlanta-based musicians for an evening of contemporary music featuring the world premiere of his composition “Trois études pour Atlanta” as well as work by Georgia composer Nickitas Demos. The music will be performed by Atlanta’s own Chamber Cartel and soloists of Ensemble Fa, a contemporary music ensemble from Paris. Hurel, who is known for his evocative blend of spectral and contrapuntal esthetics, created his latest piece especially for Chamber Cartel. The evening’s “tête-à-tête” concert also includes Demos’ “Inconsequential Intricacies” for two flutes and works by P. Boulez and S. Sciarrino.
