Zankel Dispatch

It was nice last night to chill out with the Cygnus Ensemble at Zankel. Cygnus, along with their many friends, paid tribute to composer Dina Kosten. Kosten, whose music was new to me, writes relatively dissonant music of thin, delicate textures. On the program were several small-scale chamber works, among which the �Quartet for Strings, Bowed and Plucked� was the highlight. Journalistic integrity compels me to admit that Kosten�s �Wordplay,� for unaccompanied mezzo-soprano, was the low-light. (CONtent/conTENT � get it??) Cygnus is one of the perennially bright stars in the new music firmament, and savvy concert-goers will want to keep them on the radar screen. They�ll play a Babbitt tribute at Merkin in April.
