Ensemble Paramirabo is a group of six versatile, innovative and independent musicians who strive to bring new life to the performance of art music. Ensemble Paramirabo presents creative programming that embraces collaborations with other artists and stretches the boundaries of the traditional concert experience. According to Bachtrack, Ensemble Paramirabo demonstrates ‘total fearlessness’ and is ‘a rare gem in the city – born solely of creative inspiration, and their evolution as an up-and-coming musical force is not to be missed.’ The ensemble’s mandate is to act as an advocate for emerging composers by reserving the lion’s share of their programming to new works.

Alarm Will Sound returns to the 560 Music Center on February 1st with world premieres of music by A. Pyper and Lucrecia Dalt as well as Hexactinellida by Chelsea Komschlies. A. Pyper joins Alarm Will Sound as singer and violinist for the world premiere of her new work, Descansos. Descansos are roadside memorials that mark where a loved one has died. Pyper’s work reflects on the composer’s own life experience growing up as a gay woman in a Mormon family, and trying to mark and move on from those spots in life where loss and trauma have occurred. They are one of the first recipients of support from Alarm Will Sound’s Matt Marks Impact Fund, the goal of which is to support new work that may not otherwise receive funding because of systemic barriers to unconventional work or under-represented artists.
