Oct 30, 2025
Interlochen, MI United States
http://https://www.interlochen.org/events/terra-infirma-featuring-yola
Grammy-nominated harpist Yolanda Kondonassis and the Interlochen Arts Academy String Orchestra present the world premiere of Terra Infirma, an environmentally-themed concerto by acclaimed composer Reena Esmail. This stirring 25-minute work, with projections by designer Camilla Tassi, features Kondonassis, an alumna of Interlochen, in the unusual dual role of harpist and percussionist. It will be conducted by Andrew Grams in Corson Auditorium at the Interlochen Center for the Arts in Interlochen, Michigan; the concert will also be live-streamed. Terra Infirma was directly inspired by the experiences of its creative team. Esmail, who resides in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Altadena, was forced to evacuate her home during the catastrophic fires of January 2025. Kondonassis, a committed advocate for the environment, is founder and director of the non-profit organization Earth at Heart; her initiatives include the widely-praised commissioning project FIVE MINUTES for Earth.

The 92nd Street Y, New York (92NY) presents Karl Ove Knausgård and Glenn Kotche: Historia on Thursday, October 30, 2025 at 7:30PM on the David Geffen Stage at Kaufmann Concert Hall. Globally renowned writer Karl Ove Knausgård (My Struggle, The Morning Star) and composer/percussionist Glenn Kotche (Wilco) will come together for a shared evening of words and music celebrating artistic collaboration. Featuring visuals by director Johan Renck (HBO’s Chernobyl, David Bowie’s Blackstar), the program is centered on the premiere of a new work that blends Knausgård’s hypnotic language with Kotche’s unique percussive style. The evening will include readings and performances of pieces, old and new, from each collaborator, and closes with a conversation on Knausgård and Kotche’s creative process. The program is an invitation to audiences to engage with and reflect on the power of artistic collaboration.

The Kraków-based Unsound Festival, curated by Unsound Artistic Director Mat Schulz, challenges traditional presumptions of contemporary composition with unique staging, unlikely instrumentation, and passionate presentation. Unsound performers draw liberally and without prejudice from the traditions of electronic, experimental, jazz, classical music, folk, and beyond. The festival’s return to Lincoln Center promises audiences a sonic tour of unpredictable ingenuity with unforgettable experiences that blur genre and push the boundaries of the audio avant-garde. This year’s lineup features John Cale, Sinfonietta Cracovia playing Mica Levi, Lucrecia Dalt, RP Boo & Gary Gwadera, Heinali & Andriana-Yaroslava Saienko, Aleksandra S?y? & Sinfonietta Cracovia, and more.
