The ComProv Symposium is a gathering of contemporary music specifically oriented towards the creativity, innovation and scholarship of performer/composers and improvisers. The event is a celebration of music creators who explore comprehensive musicianship by performing the music they compose for themselves or by making music in the moment.
Three concerts will be presented in Timashev Recital Hall at 11 a.m., 3 and 7 p.m. These performances are free and open to the public. No ticket required.
