Robert Aitken will join the Seattle Modern Orchestra for a celebration of his life’s work. Aitken is a world-renowned flutist, composer, and conductor and has worked with such luminaries as John Cage, George Crumb, Elliott Carter, and many others. In this unique collaboration with SMO, Aitken will be playing some of his own music, as well as that of Toru Takemitsu and conduct works by Iannis Xenakis and fellow Canadian Brian Cherney.
