Greece's Galan Trio performs at Pacific University as part of their Kinesis tour, bringing a program of American composers hailing from the West Coast, including Pacific University faculty member Ryan Francis. Their appearance is underwritten by the Elise Elliot Trust and is presented under the auspices of Greece’s Ministry of Culture.
”Kinesis” is Galan Trio’s attempt to explore the music of contemporary American composers by bringing their works together in an original, multifaceted concert program. The project draws from collaboration between Galan Trio and professors of composition from select U.S. universities, and from the notion of “Kinesis.” Kinesis is an undirected movement of a cell, organism, or part, in response to an external stimulus. In Greek, Kinesis means
movement, motion. Motion is a fundamental characteristic of all living beings; motion is what all musicians worldwide have desired during the last couple of years; motion alludes to continuity, and it’s a promise for the future of “Kinesis” itself.
Ticket Prices: $21 general admission. Free for Pacific students, faculty and staff. Tickets must be purchased online at pacificu.edu/musictickets.
