The Musical Explorations Series is an expanded, yearlong version of the annual festival presented by CalArts' School of Music. Offering a rich variety of creative performances, the series features interactive computer-based music and electronica, contemporary and traditional chamber music, improvisation, jazz, world music and, in particular, unique and surprising intercultural collaborations and crossovers.
