Week 4: Press Record
This week we're plugging in and making sound. We'll introduce Ableton Live, the software at the heart of our music studio, and show you how it turns loops, samples, and ideas into full tracks. Then we'll get hands-on with the Ableton Push 3, a tactile instrument that lets you play, sequence, and produce without staring at a screen the whole time. Come tap out a beat, build a melody, and hear how quickly a track comes together.
And Ableton is just the front door. Our music studio is stocked for wherever your sound wants to go: semi-modular synths from Moog, a full Eurorack modular system, drum machines, MIDI controllers, and a mixing setup to tie it all together. Whether you want to produce clean electronic tracks in software or patch cables and chase strange noises on hardware, there's a seat here for you.
No background in music production required, just bring your ears and your curiosity. This is the first stop in our music offerings this semester, and a great way to find out what's poss…

In partnership with the School of Music
“Famed for inventing the zitar, Niladri Kumaar occupies a unique place in the fusion music space.” - Hindustan Times
Experience the artistry of internationally acclaimed sitar virtuoso and composer Niladri Kumaar, one of the most innovative voices in Indian music today. Revered for his mastery of Indian classical traditions and celebrated for pushing the boundaries of the art form, Kumaar creates performances that are both deeply rooted and strikingly contemporary.
In Space Between the Notes, Kumaar honors his longtime musical partnership with the legendary Zakir Hussain through music inspired by their final recorded live performance together, captured in Mumbai and released as a landmark album. Hussain was part of UtahPresents’ 2024–25 season, but his passing just two months before the performance prevented the highly anticipated appearance, and this concert brings the story full circle.

by Ain Gordon & Josh Quillen
“Gordon and Quillen balance humor and sorrow to tell us a wonderfully paced, colorful story that doesn’t feel devastating or superficial.” – Arizona Daily Star
Theater artist Ain Gordon and percussionist Josh Quillen’s moving new work blurs the lines between concert, theater, and memoir.
Inspired by Quillen’s family story, Relics and Their Humans journeys to his hometown of Dover, Ohio and explores the years following his father’s ALS diagnosis. Through a recorded interview, a personal journal, and an unexpected playlist, the performance pieces together a deeply personal portrait of family, resilience, and love.
At the heart of the work is an unforgettable tribute to Quillen’s mother, whose humor, strength, and unwavering devotion illuminate every moment. Combining live music, storytelling, and inventive theatrical design, Gordon and Quillen transform intimate family history into a powerful shared experience.
With inventive dramaturgy by Talvin Wilks and evocative…

“When you’re talking about Cloud Gate, "magic" is not too strong a word.” - Time Out
Founded in 1973, Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan was the first contemporary dance company in the Chinese-speaking world. The company takes its name from the oldest known Chinese dance and seeks to combine traditional training with modern movement styles. Its dancers are well-versed in Qi Gong and meditation, as well as ballet and street dance. They have performed on stages around the globe and were recognized by The Times as “Asia’s leading contemporary dance theater.”
The evening features Blue Hour / Beckoning: A Double Bill. Derived from the French phrase l'heure bleue, Blue Hour is inspired by a vision of the hazy blue sky glimpsed in the predawn darkness of New York. Beckoning draws from the Taiwanese street-dancing ritual of the Eight Infernal Generals (Ba Jia Jiang), creating a mysterious zigzag of body language that gives this abstract work a playful yet poetic quality.
