LAMNTH is growing

Dear Lamnth Fam!

Lamnth has spent the last three years bootstrapping a new chamber music instrumentation into existence, and after 40 world premieres, we know we’ve landed on something special. About to enter our 4th season with a newly minted nonprofit tax exempt designation, we’re taking this organization to the next level and need your help to get there!

Our upcoming season is our most ambitious yet. It will feature 14 world premieres of newly commissioned works by some of the most vital voices in our community, the third iteration of LamnthLab, and our third annual Jack-o-Lamnthern Spooktacular!

As an ensemble that largely plays commissioned music, we’re continuing our commitment to seeking out music creators with unique voices and perspectives. Our first concert of the season will feature music by composers better known for their work in the avant-garde metal scene: Toby Driver of Kayo Dot, Adam Kalmbach of Jute Gyte, and Charlie Looker of Extra Life. Later concerts this season will feature premieres by Hannah Barnes, Forbes Graham, Emily Praetorius, Heather Stebbins, and new works by composers from the Iranian Female Composers Association, Bahar Royaee, Golnaz Shariatzadeh, Niloufar Shiri, and Shahrzad Talebi.

In order to bring these important pieces to our community, we need to raise $12,500 by October 20th. These funds will help cover commissioning fees, venue rentals, production expenses, and more. And with the support of our incredible Lamnth Fam, we know we can do it. Donate now to ensure we can continue this work for another season and years to come.

With gratitude,

Lilit + Nick 🩵🩵🩵
