Dear colleagues,
A note about an upcoming event this fall:
Earle Brown (1926–2002) was an American composer who composed dozens of works for orchestra, choir, chamber ensembles, and electronic media employing innovative musical techniques including improvisation, graphic notation, and open form.
One hundred years after Brown’s birth, “Perspectives on Earle Brown at 100” celebrates and examines Brown’s contributions by juxtaposing artistic and scholarly perspectives on his work and legacy. This one-day event on Friday, October 9, 2026 at Central Connecticut State University in New Britain, CT will feature performances of rarely-heard works, scholarly presentations, a performance practice roundtable, a gallery exhibition, and an electronic music concert with octophonic sound. We are especially excited to welcome Dr. Simon Obert, Curator of the Earle Brown Collection at the Paul Sacher Stiftung.
More information, including a detailed schedule, will be provided as the date approaches. In the meantime, the most up-to-date information will be available on this page: https://earlebrown100.carrd.co/
If you have any questions, please email Drake Andersen, Assistant Professor of Music, Central Connecticut State University at dandersen@ccsu.edu.
