Join us for a special music performance by Michael Tran and faculty mentorDr. Nadia Shpachenko. They will be performing “wgah’nagl fhtagn” byThomas Kotcheff, a Los Angeles based composer and pianist.

Presentation Abstract:Contemporary music is the future of music. In order for this art to live on andto be relevant, new music must be created and played. This piece by ThomasKotcheff named “wgah’nagl fhtagn” is a duet for piano/toy piano that waswritten with inspiration from the story of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft. The namecomes as part of the chant that Cthulhu’s worshipers chant. This 9 minute pieceexudes raw emotions in the form of delicate chords and intricate rhythms.
