LIVE STREAM AND IN-PERSON
PRESENTED BY WQXR

Luna Composition Lab is “changing the playing field” for young artists (The New Yorker). Launched in 2016 by composers Missy Mazzoli and Ellen Reid with the Kaufman Music Center, Luna Lab elevates underrepresented voices in the world of classical music by providing mentorship and resources for young female, non-binary, and gender nonconforming composers across the country. The impact of Luna Lab is reverberating through concert halls and classrooms throughout the U.S. Its alumni are making their mark in the composition field, with numerous awards and honors as well as commissions from professional ensembles. Luna Lab celebrates its talented alumni in the first ever Alumni Showcase, featuring musicians from the International Contemporary Ensemble. Nia Franklin hosts the event.

Everyone entering The Greene Space must present proof that they have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Please review the current policies and safeguards they have put in place to keep everyone safe.
