Art Inspiring Art II

Join MUSA for the second installment of Art Inspiring Art, an ongoing project to commission new works based on Baroque masterpieces from emerging composers across the country. This year, we feature the work of Los Angeles-based Andrew McIntosh, who will write a work based on Georg Philipp Telemann's "Paris Quartets."
