Notes by Brent Miller:
Rova Saxophone Quartet, an unstoppable force of creative music, was an early supporter of Center for New Music, and quickly adopted the venue as a home base to explore the experimental edges of the extensive Rova catalog. On August 1, 2019, Rova joined forces with Thollem McDonas, in the midst of a 6-month tour, to create an unforgettable evening of exciting, genre-defying music.
Center for New Music serves the practitioners of creative, non-commercial music by providing the resources they need, including space to work, rehearse, and perform, plus access to a like-minded community and media resources. Through these services, the Center seeks to support and build the community of new music to encourage its efficiency, growth, integration, and excellence. By valuing diversity and inclusion, fair treatment of members, fair payment of participating artists, and advocacy for the growth and integration of our community, the Center provides a platform for communication, collaboration, outreach, program development, incubation of new artists, engagement of new listeners, and increased activity for the business of new music.
