From April 17-23, the Festival of Contemporary Music from Israel will showcase living Israeli composers for the University of Iowa’s Provost’s Global Forum.

The UI Center for New Music will host an exciting, vibrant, international festival April 17-23 featuring music by living Israeli composers in collaboration with the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance.

The program will blend live musical performances and conversation with ensemble members about the pieces to be performed during the forum and, more generally, about the contemporary music scene in Israel.   

This week-long festival, in collaboration with the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance, will feature nine public concerts.
