SUMMARY:The Esoterics performing Babbitt
DESCRIPTION:Over the seven decades of his compositional career\, Babbitt wr
 ote both tonal and non-tonal music\, and expanded the controversial serial
 ist method (also known as “12-tone music”) by manipulating every music
 al dimension – such as rhythm\, timbre\, and dynamics – to create what
  was known as “integral serialism.” The consummate “maximalist\,” 
 Babbitt’s works are highly contextual\, always variable and never repeti
 tive\, often at the edge of the performers’ ability\, abstract yet narra
 tive\, polyphonic yet playful. With every composition\, Babbitt seemed to 
 invent his own new musical grammar. In this unprecedented concert\, The Es
 oterics will celebrate Babbitt’s centenary by singing his entire catalog
  of a cappella choruses\, several of which have never been performed live 
 in concert. This program will include: An Elizabethan sextette\, Four cano
 ns\, Glosses\, Music for the mass\, More phonemena\, Round\, and Three cul
 tivated choruses.\n\nGeneral admission ticket prices are $25 at the door (
 $22 in advance). Discounted admission ticket prices are $18 at the door (
 $15 in advance) for students\, seniors\, the un(der)employed\, and the di
 fferently-abled. Active singers in other choral groups may also attend fo
 r $15.
