Riordan's Composition Selected for NAT 28 Performance

Brian Riordan's composition The Moon is Drifting Away from the Earth will be performed by Pittsburgh contemporary music ensemble NAT 28. Riordan's work was selected through a call for scores from emerging composers and will be featured on a program featuring two other emerging composers, Adam Shield, and Alex Marthaler as well as local university faculty composers Mathew Rosenblum, Amy Williams, and Reza Vali. The concert takes place at the Kelly Strayhorn Theater on Saturday, March 11 at 7 p.m. Tickets are available online and at the door.
