Ensemble
Pi, renowned for its socially conscious programs, will present an
evening of premieres and recent works in solidarity with Black Lives
Matter. “Ensemble Pi strongly believes
in the need for a more just society. With this concert, it wishes to
mourn the dead and celebrate the living by presenting the work of living
composers who have responded musically to systemic racism and police
brutality.”
