Heirloom: Johnstone Fund for New Music Series

Heirloom is a concert series presenting compositions with a unique blend of the familiar and innovative. The ensemble explores musical narratives and ancestral relationships through three distinct performances with our debut at the Johnstone Fund for New Music Short North Stage series (Free), a family interactive concert at the Bexley Library (Free), and an intimate cocktail pairing with mixologists at Seventh Son Brewing Co. ($10 per ticket).

Feautured on our program will combine beloved works in the violin/cello repertoire by Zoltán Kodaly and Erwin Schulhoff, as well as lesser-known works by Adolphus Hailstork and a world premiere by Sharon Udoh (Commissioned by the Johnstone Fund for New Music).

Performing with Chamber Brews will be Devin Copfer (Director, violinist) and Sam Johnson (Program Developer, cellist). Chamber Brews is a collaborative new-music ensemble bringing unique and interactive programming to audiences through live performance, video series, and recordings. With the continued support of the Johnstone Fund for New Music, the Greater Columbus Arts Council, and our community, Chamber Brews continues to create programs celebrating diverse musical voices by regularly commissioning works, seeking out distinct performance venues, and collaborating with artistic partners in Columbus, Ohio.
