The concert series, “Chamber Music at the Esther Massry Gallery” continues Sunday, January 23 with "COMPOS’ ite: Works by Modern and Contemporary Composers” performed by an ensemble of Saint Rose music faculty. Featured is the world premier of “CONSTRUCT,” new music written by resident composer Bruce Craig Roter in response to Creighton Michael’s exhibition on view at the gallery through January 23.

"Chamber Music at the Esther Massry Gallery" offers opportunities for audiences to compare the different ways in which artistic expression is manifested and the means by which musicians and artists create their work. Audiences are encouraged to learn more about the music performed and the artistic process. Mid-and post-performance conversations between the audience and performers serve as further catalysts for cross-disciplinary discussion.
