MEMBERS BULLETIN The Avazad Duo are running monthly composers forums, where composers present and discuss their work. Here is their description of the event:

On the first Sunday of every month, we are hosting a zoom meeting to showcase the latest works of emerging composers from around the world. An informal discussion will follow, based on a range of topics related to the music presented, giving the audience the chance to engage in conversation and interact with the composers on a level that is, under normal circumstances not common practice. The forum supports emerging composers to reach a greater audience and gives music lovers the fascinating insight into what goes on behind the scenes, in the conception and realisation of a piece of music.

Book now! tickets are free and available on Eventbrite!

Jake Adams’ work for solo classical guitar, Sky and Water, is being performed in the St. Petersburg International New Music Festival “reMusik.org” on May 24th. The piece will be performed by guitarist Alexy Potapov.
