June 25th Saturday 8pm

Chimera Ensemble

Chimera⁠—a mythical beast composed of parts of different animals, often wildly imaginative or dazzling; also a trio of composers who create emotional music distilled from Western Classical, Indian, Balkan, Middle Eastern, Celtic, Jazz and more.

Katrina Wreede – viola
Moses Sedler – cello
Diana Rowan – harp

Chimera is a symposium of Bay Area composers who put the joy of ongoing creation at the top of their artistic to-do list. The members nurture their music with both western classical training and years of study in other musical traditions.  The blending of centuries of human experience produces pieces of striking power.  Chimera’s creative process is always dynamic and collaborative, including much space for the kind of self-expression that only improvisation allows.  Each performance is a deep dive into the performers as both composers and people.  And no performance is ever the same, much like life.

Special guests: La Zuli: Briana di Mara (violin) and Anis Shehiri (guitar)
