Westminster Concert Series is thrilled to announce the selection of Xavier Muzik as the 23-24 Hear & Now commissioned composer. Xavier writes about this commission, “The goal of my "Hear & Now" composition is to create a transformative and immersive experience for the audience. Through the combination of music, visuals, and symbolic narratives woven through my photography, I aim to evoke my state of mind at the time I took the photos: melancholic and pensive, but punctuated by moments of profound joy. The composition will be calming, grounding, exhilarating, and restrained, providing the audience with a deeply immersive and introspective journey.” Hear the world premiere for voice, violin, piano and percussion.

The program also features music by Oswald Huỳnh, Devin Maxwell, and inti figgis-vizueta. Huỳnh’s Glass Shards for violin and harp will be performed. Reception to follow the concert.

This prize was funded in part by the Salt Lake Arts Council through the Racial, Equity, and Inclusion Grant made possible by the National Endowment for the Arts.
