Fonema Consort
We will feature guest composer Orlando Jacinto Garcia. Orlando is on the faculty of Florida International University and is director of the New Music Miami ISCM Festival. His music – spare, quiet and spicy – has been too little heard in Chicago.
Orlando Garcia

Core Interludes for piano, cello and percussion by Orlando Garcia
oscurecimiento gradual for solo piano by Orlando Garcia
el silencio despues de la lluvia flute and guitar by Orlando Garcia
