Unfiltered Music Festival
Night II: Curtis Stewart
About the Event
Violinist, improviser, composer, arts leader and multimedia artist Curtis Stewart has taken the classical music world by storm, garnering three Grammy nominations in as many years, as a soloist and as a member of PUBLIQuartet, and recently being named Artistic Director of the American Composers Orchestra. About his solo show “of Love,” Stewart writes:
“A digital and personal requiem of sorts, of Love is a through-composed collection of works to cherish all the time we live through – composition through DAW as a form of musical caretaking. If the push and pull of social and financial responsibility structure life; then, our aesthetic loves, personal passions, familial cares and social worries keep us tethered to it – These works tap into the visceral sensation of holding and loss – a sonic grappling with grief – the loss of a mother, the gain of a partner, the search for love in urban settings and all the ways we use identity to grasp onto this life of ours.”
