Musical Fund Society Bicentennial Concert

Perelman Theater, Kimmel Center | 300 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19102

The Network Ensemble joins in another long-awaited celebration of the Musical Fund Society's Bicentennial by performing the world premiere of Stephen Jaffe’s Three Arcs.

The Society’s Edwin G. McCollin Fund competition selected four nationally recognized composers, each commissioned to write a new chamber work based in some way on the rich history of Philadelphia, for one of four participating performing organizations: the 20/21 Ensemble from the Curtis Institute of Music, Network for New Music, a quartet from Astral Artists, and PRISM Quartet.
