Confluence is an ongoing series of open collaborative concerts, allowing Seattle’s adventurous musicians the opportunity to perform small sets with total creative freedom. After last August’s exciting premiere show, Confluence is back for 2025, and this lineup isn’t to be missed, ranging from world premiere piano works to electronic improvisation on a custom instrument!
Veteran Seattle composer Keith Eisenbrey returns to the Chapel with brand new additions to his ongoing series of Sinfonias for piano. Cellist Mary Riles is joined by multi-instrumentalist Peter Nelson-King for a pair of 21st-century cello/piano gems. Peter then joins pianist Jennifer Chung and composer Aaron Keyt to premiere Keyt’s new set of piano duet compositions and perform a rarely-heard charmer by Otto Luening. Saxophonist Soren Hamm will be premiering new works for unaccompanied tenor sax. Clarinetist Beverly Setzer will be playing classic music by the world-famous, Seattle-based experimental clarinetist/composer William O. Smith. Rounding out the program is a set by trombonist Christian Pincock where he plays his one-of-a-kind Quadapod.
