EXTRA!, EXTRA!, SOLI Chamber Ensemble kicks off its 2012-2013 season YEAR OF THE NEW, with our first program entitled HOT OFF THE PRESS. Join us for the world premiere performances of RagOut for Four by Peter Farmer, Three Portraits by Elliott McKinley, and Moving On by Erich Stem. To round out the program, we bring back our good friend Diego Vega’s beautiful work, Divertimento.

Be sure to stay after the concert to meet these three fantastic composers.

Immediately after the premiere, SOLI will travel to New Albany Indiana to record Farmer, Stem, McKinley, and Vega for the New Dynamic Records.

Join us for this great season opener! This concert is a must hear for NEW music!
