Featuring guest artist Timothy Hagen, flute and electronics, Denison’s annual Contemporary Sounds concert series explores the art of storytelling through music. Praised for his “technical virtuosity and musical sensitivity” by NewMusicBox and “real flair” by The Well-Tempered Ear, Hagen is a laureate of multiple national and international competitions, including the Myrna Brown Artist Competition and the Australian International Flute Competition. 

He serves as principal flute of the Dubuque Symphony and Missouri Symphony and has performed with professional ensembles across the country, including the Minnesota Orchestra, Milwaukee Symphony, Oregon Symphony, Grant Park Orchestra, Kalamazoo Symphony, San Antonio Symphony and Dallas Wind Symphony. His award-winning compositions are performed throughout North America and Europe, and his scholarly writing has appeared in journals of the National Flute Association and the British Flute Society. 

The performance is accompanied by visuals created by Chris Faur, director of collaborative technologies for the fine arts at Denison.
