The University’s School of Music and Dance is holding its quarterly Oregon Composer’s Forum tonight at 8:00 p.m. in Beall Hall, located at 961 E. 18th Ave. The program comprises 10 University composers’ pieces performed by various student groups and soloists, said Jesse Jones, a graduate student in the music program. Groups performing include Sospiro and Ecce.
All the pieces will be world premiers, Jones said.
Also performing is world-renowned composer and University music professor Robert Kyr, Jones said. Kyr’s “Transfigured Lightning” piece has been kept under tight wraps.
“It’s a secret what he’ll be doing,” Jones said. “But it’ll be good.”
The program is free to students. For more information, call the School of Music’s Community Relations Office at 346-5678.
