Join Exponential Ensemble for Season 14 with 5 concerts featuring contrasting programs made of classic masterworks and works by living composers for woodwinds, strings and piano. 

 

We continue our mission of commissioning new works by living composers that are inspired by math, science and literacy.  These new works are to be performed on our regular concert series and also as part of our interactive educational concerts for people of all ages and backgrounds. 

This season we are premiering two commissioned works inspired by nature. 

In November we premiered "Forces of Nature" by Jessica Meyer, inspired by the Four Elements: earth, water, air and fire. This work was created as part of an educational outreach residency at The Celia Cruz Bronx High School.

In January we will premiere "Wild Birds of New York" by Brad Balliett, a work inspired by birds that live or migrate through New York City's Central Park. The piece is accompanied by video portraits of six Central Park bird species, illuminating different aspects of their behavior.

We need your help to support these commissions along with the production of our programs this season. 

About Exponential Ensemble

Founded in 2011 by clarinetist Pascal Archer, Exponential Ensemble is a mixed chamber music ensemble made of New York City’s top-notch performers and teaching artists. Each season the ensemble presents compelling programs that include both classic masterworks and contemporary masterpieces.

 

Exponential Ensemble’s mission includes commissioning and premiering works by living composers that are inspired by math, science and literacy.  Since 2013 they have commissioned and premiered new works by composers such as Amy Brandon, Robert Paterson, Jessica Meyer, Gilad Cohen, and Jared Miller. Exponential Ensemble collaborates regularly with composer Daniel Ott for the Fordham Composers Program at Lincoln Center’s Fordham University. Recent collaborations included new music residencies with New York City's Composers Collective and at the Mostly Modern Festival, during which Exponential Ensemble premiered six new works by emerging composers. 

 

Additionally, Exponential Ensemble curates interactive educational programs that use music as a way to connect with school curricula. These programs have been delivered to organizations such as Music for Autism, the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, UpBeat, The Celia Cruz Bronx High School and in other New York City public schools.
