Loop38 is excited to present a concert of works showcasing the variety and diversity of "American Landscapes." The landscapes of the Americas are spanned by rich cultural latitudes and a broad palette of historical stories and voices. In its exploration of these voices, Loop38 is presenting music by composers from Massachusetts, Ontario, Washington D.C., Missouri, and Rio de Janeiro. The five pieces on this program are connected by their overlapping instrumentations, while their geographical and cultural diversity affords an opportunity to showcase these instruments in various musical styles and contexts.

Samuel Andreyev - Bern Trio (2015)
