The new piece 'Cosmic Rose' for horn and harp, commissioned by horn player Rachel Constantino, will be premiered by Rachel and harpist Shelly Du at Bryan Recital Hall, Bowling Green State University, Ohio, on Saturday 15 October at 2.30pm EDT (11.30am PDT) as part of the Bowling Green New Music Festival.

The title refers to the image of a rose created by a pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273. The commission was funded by the Meir Rimon Commissioning Assistance Program of the International Horn Society and the MidAmerican Center for Contemporary Music at the College of Musical Arts of Bowling Green State University.
