This concert will draw from the experimental chamber music composed in the 1960s by fellows at the Centro Latinoamericano de Altos Estudios Musicales (CLAEM) of the Instituto Di Tella in Buenos Aires, which was a major meeting point for composers from Latin America. Composer Alberto Ginastera founded the center in 1962 and directed it until it closed in the early '70s. The program is co-curated by Americas Society's Music Director Sebastián Zubieta and musicologist Laura Novoa (Buenos Aires), and will feature performances by Momenta Quartet, among others.
