As we are a young ensemble at the beginning of our existence as an entity, this program will focus on the theme of youth: whether by programming a work written by a composer in his or her youth, a work written with a specific young performer in mind, or a one written by a brilliant composer who died far too young.  It will also feature world premieres by MCP Composers Vivian Fung and Chris Rogerson.
