ConneXions by David Hahn

In 1995, David Hahn received a grant from ArtsLink, a partnership of the National Endowment for the Arts, the Soros Foundation and the Trust for Mutual Understanding. The purpose of the award was to foster artistic collaborations between artists in the US and those in Eastern Europe. The group founded is called ConneXions, and has performed at the Ribnjak Theater in Zagreb and its music has been broadcast on Zagreb Radio 3.

ConneXions performs contemporary chamber music making use of the "connections" between the classical voice, jazz saxophone, and rock-oriented guitar. The electro-acoustic dynamic of our ensemble with a powerful operatic voice makes our music compelling and unique. ConneXions is also about the trans-national connections (in our case between America and Eastern Europe), suggesting a world without borders. Our songs and instrumental pieces sometimes dramatize contemporary issues of concern, such as the war in the former Yugoslavia, the AIDS epidemic, and the general alienation of the individual in modern society.
