UCSB Ensemble for Contemporary Music: A Journey Through the Impossible

Directed by Dr. Sarah Gibson, the UC Santa Barbara Ensemble for Contemporary Music presents “A Journey Through the Impossible” on Thursday, March 18, 2021 at 6 pm PST as a YouTube Premiere via the Department of Music’s YouTube channel. Opening with works by Julius Eastman, Dai Fujikura, and John Cage, the stellar performers will explore a variety of ways to make music through distance and precision. The centerpiece of the program will be the premiere of six new student works written to accompany Georges Méliès’ seminal silent film, “Le Voyage à travers l’impossible.” In every piece, there lies a journey, whether it is from the earth to the sun, or simply an act of self-discovery.
