Description

The 54th Annual Contemporary Music Festival at Indiana State University will take place this week from Wednesday through Friday, October 28-30. Due to fall 2020 performance restrictions, this year's festival will be smaller in scope and will not feature a guest composer. But, we will continue to celebrate new music through several live-streamed performances, including works by our Music Now contest composers, ISU students, and faculty. Next year's 55th Annual Festival in October 2021 will feature guest composer, Jake Runestad, but this year's guests will include a condensed version of the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra as orchestra-in-residence and the Music Now Chamber Music Contest winners. The schedule for the festival is available on the CMF website (https://www.indstate.edu/cas/cmf) and is also listed below. All events will have in-person seating with overflow rooms available. Also, all events other than the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra events on Thursday will be live-streamed to the Indiana State University School of Music YouTube Channel which can be searched on YouTube or can be accessed via the following link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv9J3pn0e1t06Gwi6oV3Ycg. We hope you can join us in-person or virtually!
