ピアノから姿を変えて弦楽四重奏による伴奏を見つけてしまった。

弦楽とソプラノによるノスタルジックな渋みと哀愁を帯びた美しさがどストライク。

Carnegie Hall - JDD & Brentano String Quartet

Yay to the string quartet (they are a really intense bunch, I wish I could have taken a photo during; it looked like the sheet music was going to burst into flames at any moment with all the brow furrowing)

Yay to the composers and writers (this specific applause for Jake Heggie; the others were scattered around)

Yay to JDD

Group shot

There would be bonus pics of JDD and Jake during the signing afterwards except they get this mean usher to shoo us all away as fast as possible.

A new piece takes flight at 92Y

Grammy-nominated composer-pianist Vijay Iyer comes to 92Y this Saturday to give the New York premiere of his new work, Time, Place, Action, for Piano and Strings, with the Brentano String Quartet. The music is inspired in part by the improvisation dance form, “flocking,” where a group takes its collective cue from a leader, like birds in migration.

Yet throughout the piece, Iyer notes that performers may add their own dynamic, rhythm and energy through interpretation, making each performance thoroughly unique. Check out this exclusive preview of the score of Time, Space, Action, and be sure to join us Saturday to see and hear what “flocking” is all about!
