NEO’s 2023 thematic launch point is that of Recurrence: a deliciously, inspiringly-cyclical cocktail of philosophical and poetic threads that unravel into one another over and again. Fantastically, the conversation around recurrence tends to repeat on itself quickly and often. As soon as we get our heads around part of it, we lose sight of the rest. The 2023 N.E.O. composers responded to “Recurrence” in ways that repeated on each other. Many explored improvisation, there are multiple reflections on celestial recurrence, and everyone elucidated meaning and purpose in some way. We organized the program celestially, beginning with early evening, moving through night, and then to daylight. Each programmatic moment reflects the others, revealing the poetic core of recurrence.
