Composition area welcomes guests, Unheard-of Ensemble

Unheard-of guest ensemble residency Nov. 12
Wed, November 12, 2025
7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Timashev Recital Hall

The Composition area welcomes guest ensemble Unheard-of to Ohio State to perform world premieres by our student composers alongside Christopher Stark’s Fire Ecologies (2020).

This event is free and open to the public. No ticket required.


Ford Fourqurean (clarinet), Matheus Souza (violin), Iva Casian-Lakoš (cello) and Daniel Anastasio (piano) are Unheard-of, a Brooklyn-based clarinet, violin, cello and piano quartet dedicated to connecting new music to communities in New York and across the United States through the development and performance of adventurous programs using technology and interactive multimedia. Unheard-of is committed to the idea that new music belongs in every community, and implements this mission through concerts and educational workshops throughout New York as well as on tour. 

Unheard-of originally started as a commissioning project by Ford and Daniel in 2014 to expand the chamber music repertoire for clarinet and piano. The group formed as a quartet in 2018 and has since grown into a nationwide community across multiple artistic genres. With an approach that is open and welcoming of all voices, Unheard-of strives to be a vehicle for development and growth for voices novel and experienced, experimental and traditional, uncomfortable and accessible.


All events are subject to change.
