Founded in 2003, Atlanta-based Bent Frequency brings the avant-garde to life through adventurous and socially conscious programming, cross-disciplinary collaborations, and community engagement. One of BF’s primary goals is championing the work of historically underrepresented composers - music by women, composers of color, and LGBTQIA+. This program will feature new music written specifically for Bent Frequency for saxophone, percussion, electronics, and toy instruments! Written by Elainie Lillios, Amy Williams, George Lewis, Emily Koh and UCCS faculty member, Yvonne Wu, these works draw on many sources of inspiration; from inflection through semi-structured group improvisation to sonic meditations on community aiming to create a new musical “we”; from haiku depicting scenes of moonlight on an icy river to the lines and shapes in soil caused by water erosion; from simple sounds emanating from a child’s playroom to the sonic depth of possibilities available when combining saxophone, percussion and electronics.
