Pulitzer Prize-Winning Composer Tania León’s Organization Composers Now Collaborates with Miami Light Project on Upcoming Concert.

In collaboration with Miami Light Project, Composers Now presents the fourteenth edition of Dialogues, a unique program that brings together audiences and composers through conversation and live performances.

Dialogues, launched in 2015, is a program designed to foster meaningful interactions between composers and their audiences. This edition, co-hosted by Composers Now Founder/Artistic Director Tania León and Director of New Music Miami ISCM Festival Orlando Garcia, will feature compositions by Issy Garcia, Juraj Kojs, and Molly Turner.

This collaboration marks the first of its kind between Composers Now and Miami Light Project, Florida International University, Rhythm Foundation, and the New World Symphony, and serves as a prelude to the expansion of the annual Composers Now Festival into Miami in February 2025.
