"Listening Around : Listening In" is the theme for the 2010 Lipa Festival of Contemporary Music. Guest composer Elainie Lillios will present music created by placing electronic and natural sounds in Ambisonic sound space, surrounding the audience. Sonja Giles will premier "Among Fireflies" by Dr. Lillios. Other works include "Rainsticks" performed by Matthew Coley, vibraphone and electronics.

An unusually thoughtful memorial fund has been established by the widow of an ISU professor who loved music. The fund honors the memory of C. Buell Lipa, a man whose interests and knowledge spanned centuries. Lipa was a professor emeritus of English.

The Lipa Festival is funded in part with support of the C. Buell Lipa Memorial for 20th Century Music, the Louise Moen Hamilton Fund for Excellence in Music, and the Alvin Edgar Fund for the Performing Arts - a part of the Iowa State University Foundation.
