Fonema Consort commissions, performs, and records new and experimental music that explores the limits of the human voice in a radical chamber setting. Known for their "enthusiastic embrace of daring new music" (Chicago Reader), Fonema is driven by a fascination with pieces that foster rich interplay of voices and instruments characterized by a vibrant viscerality. The ensemble is highly committed to presenting works by Latin American composers to US audiences and encouraging musical and cultural exchange between these regions. Fonema Consort was founded in 2011 by singer Nina Dante and composers Pablo Santiago Chin and Edward Hamel.

This concert will feature works by Gabriel Bolanos Chamorro, Genie Alvarado, Alberto Carretero, Michele Abondano, Jianing Yang, and Rebecca Saunders.
