Musiqa’s 20th Anniversary Double Feature will include two different programs, featuring works by the composers who have led Musiqa throughout the years, including Karim Al-Zand, Anthony Brandt, Shih-Hui Chen, Pierre Jalbert, Marcus Maroney, Rob Smith, and Kurt Stallmann.

With hundreds of works and dozens of world premieres in Musiqa's history, they could never provide a complete sampling of their repertoire in a single concert, so they've decided to spread them out over two concerts on the same day. Both concerts will feature Musiqa Miniatures – a series of short pieces originally commissioned to celebrate their 10th anniversary – the world premiere of Marcus Maroney's Velvet, and the live premiere of Stars by Trevor Weston, a new work celebrating the poetry of Robert Hayden, commissioned with support from Chamber Music America.
