Luna Composition Lab and ChamberQUEER present the second installment of The Nebula Project on November 3 at National Sawdust. Helix will feature premieres by Luna Lab alumni Azalea Twining, Cecelia Olszewski, and Michelle David, as well as librettist Madeline Weisbeck, engaging with concepts of physical and metaphorical space, enclosure, perception, horror, and mysticism. The commissioned artists also serve as co-curators, shaping the themes of the evening and participating in the selection of pieces from fellow alumni from a call for scores. The program will also include compositions by Luna Lab alumni Olivia Bennett, Carolina Bragg, KiMani Bridges, Madeline Cheng, Devon Lee, Yuri Lee, and Mia Turakhia.

The Morgan Library with The Curiosity Cabinet ensemble

The Curiosity Cabinet celebrates the legacy of Edgar Allan Poe for Halloween at the Morgan Library Museum. The evening features two striking rescorings of experimental American silent films from 1928—THE TELL-TALE HEART and THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER —performed live by an instrumental ensemble. The score for THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER highlights the film’s surreal visual landscape, which is achieved through stark color contrasts, intricate layering, optical distortion, and prism-shot footage.

Complementing these cinematic works, the program also presents an intimate musical setting of Poe’s lesser-known poem, EVENING STAR, and a semi-theatrical presentation of his iconic poem THE RAVEN, featuring chamber ensemble, and narrator.
