      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Unsuk Chin - Violin Concerto No. 1 (2001)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Composed for the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin in 2001, while Chin was based in Germany, Violin Concerto No. 1 demonstrates her precise command of texture, creating a shimmering, densely layered sound world in which the solo violin interacts dynamically with the orchestra. In 2004, the work earned Chin the Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition, underscoring its significance within the contemporary repertoire. Structured in four movements, each with a distinct character, the concerto showcases the breadth of Chin’s expressive and technical range.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Unsuk Chin - Alice in Wonderland (2007)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Alice in Wonderland was Unsuk Chin’s first opera and remains one of her largest-scale works. Premiered in 2007, the opera draws on Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The narrative aligns naturally with Chin’s musical language, allowing her to explore playfulness, surrealism, and sonic fantasy while also engaging with the darker, more enigmatic aspects of Carroll’s world.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Jennifer Higdon - blue cathedral (1999)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Commissioned by the Curtis Institute of Music in memory of Higdon’s brother, blue cathedral remains her most beloved work. The composer describes it as “the expression of the individual and the group... our inner travels and the places our souls carry us.” The piece unfolds from a quiet, reflective opening to a radiant climax before dissolving into serenity, its flute and clarinet lines—played on the instruments she and her brother once played—intertwining in a tender musical farewell.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Andy Akiho - Seven Pillars</image:title>
      <image:caption>Seven Pillars is among Akiho’s most acclaimed compositions, earning him a finalist position for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize in Music and Grammy nominations for Best Chamber Music/Small Ensemble Performance (Sandbox Percussion) and Best Contemporary Classical Composition. Written for Sandbox Percussion, the work consists of seven ensemble movements (“pillars”) interspersed with four solos. The piece highlights the vast range and expressive potential of percussion instruments, both as individual voices and as part of a cohesive ensemble.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Andy Akiho - Sculptures</image:title>
      <image:caption>Composed in 2023, Sculptures is a large-scale orchestral work featuring a soloist who performs on ceramic sculptures created by Japanese-American artist Jun Kaneko. Scored for full orchestra and a dedicated percussionist, the piece blurs the boundaries between visual art and music. Across its nine movements—Translucent, Bronze I, Petroglyph, Cylinders, Kintsugi, Ma, Density, Bronze II, and In That Space, At That Time—Akiho explores the sonic possibilities of nontraditional instruments, reaffirming his commitment to pushing the creative limits of percussion.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Caroline Shaw - Partita for 8 Voices</image:title>
      <image:caption>Composed between 2009 and 2012, Partita for 8 Voices is Shaw’s groundbreaking a cappella work for eight singers, structured around four movements named after Baroque dances: Allemande, Sarabande, Courante, and Passacaglia. Awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2013, the piece reimagines the potential of the human voice through an inventive use of techniques such as humming, spoken word, and yodeling. The result is a dynamic journey that transitions from moments of profound stillness to powerful, immersive walls of sound, redefining vocal composition in contemporary music.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Counterpoint Concert's Classical Music Blog - Composers You Should Know: Caroline Shaw - Entr’acte</image:title>
      <image:caption>Composed in 2011 for string quartet, Entr’acte exemplifies Shaw’s mastery of genre-blending and innovation. Inspired by Haydn, the piece opens and closes with a classical theme, while the middle section ventures into modern dissonance and textural experimentation. Shaw has noted that the work was inspired by hearing the Brentano Quartet perform Haydn’s Op. 77, No. 2, and it captures her ability to bridge tradition and contemporary creativity with striking originality.</image:caption>
