San Francisco Contemporary Music Players Presents- Infinite Black, 10/10/2005
Monday, October 10, 2005
8pm (7:15pm pre-concert talk)
Yerba Buena Center for the Arts-Forum
701 Mission Street at 3rd Street, San Francisco
415-278-ARTS
The season opener (October 10), Infinite Black, presents four works that play at the edges of musical sound. Salvatore Sciarrino, a composer whose scores are widely performed in Europe, is still known in the United States mostly by reputation. David Milnes conducts the ensemble with mezzo-soprano Bo Chang in one of Sciarrino’s major works, Infinito Nero, a performance in one act based on the words of St. Maria Maddalena de’ Pazzi, an early 17th-century Florentine mystic. Presenting a contrasting face of Sciarrino’s oeuvre, pianist Chryssie Nanou performs the intensely athletic Piano Sonata IV, as well as Karlheinz Stockhausen’s classic Klavierstück IX, which can be heard as an ancestor to Sciarrino’s music. Daniel Kennedy is the soloist in a new work developed at IRCAM, France’s computer music center, for percussion and electronics by Mei-Fang Lin.
