As the culmination to the 2010 Merriman Family Young Composers Workshop, 10 local teenage composers will have their music premiered by Seattle Symphony musicians on Monday, April 26, at 8:00 pm. The annual recital is free and will take place at Benaroya Hall. Seattle Symphony Music Director Gerard Schwarz will host the event and interview each young composer prior to the performance of their work. Each young composer will briefly discuss the inspiration behind their piece, providing insight into the thoughts and musical ideas of classical music’s next generation.
