Longing for Utopia: Graeme Jennings plays Nono
In this hour-long piece for soloist and electronics, violinist Graeme Jennings forges an unpredictable path through the audience, like a pilgrim on a spiritual quest. Nono’s piece requires the highest level of collaboration from the sound diffusionist, who must mix eight independently recorded parts in real-time, responding in the moment to the violinist’s live performance. A groundbreaking work by one of the most influential composers of the late 20th century, the piece will be paired with a discussion led by the performers and other experts on Nono’s work.
This performance of music by Luigi Nono is presented in collaboration with the Istituto Italiano di Cultura.

Other Minds 15
7pm Panel Discussion with Composers
8pm Concert
The 15th Other Minds Music Festival opens with masterful works by composers from three different generations. Switzerland’s Jürg Frey (b. 1953), one of the most active members of the hyper-minimalist Wandelweiser collective, has developed an expansive oeuvre of nearly 120 works of the utmost simplicity and stark beauty, some with durations up to 6 hours. His second string quartet proceeds for nearly 30 minutes at the volume of a whisper, yet extracts the complexity of a full choir from the strings of our special guests, Montreal’s Quatuor Bozzini.
Chou Wen-chung (b. 1923) is known widely as the first Chinese-American classical composer and teacher of Tan Dun (OM 2), Ge Gan-ru (OM 9), and Chinary Ung (OM 14) among others. In his double-trio Twilight Colors, to be performed by San Francisco’s Left Coast Chamber Ensemble, Chou draws influences from two cultures: the piece was inspired by the changing colors of the sky over the Hudson River Valley, yet constructed with a technique akin to the brushstrokes of early 17th century Chinese calligraphy. This source of inspiration, also evident in the early piano work The Willows Are New, evokes a lively landscape through subtle change and sophisticated organization.
The evening concludes with Kafka Songs, written by Lisa Bielawa (b. San Francisco, 1969) for the inimitable Carla Kihlstedt. Winner of this year’s prestigious Rome Prize, Bielawa brings together in Kafka Songs her expertise in vocal music, earned both through compositions and over 17 years of performances in the Philip Glass Ensemble, her literary interests, and her powerful sense of drama. As both vocalist and violinist, Kihlstedt leads this virtuosic exploration through the poetic side of Kafka, in seven reflections on stories from Meditation and Parables.

Composer Stefan Heucke and oboist Susan Eischeid present a new composition commemorating the homosexual victims of the Holocaust, performed by artists from the US, Canada and Germany. The Pink Triangle Project, brainchild of VSU professor Susan Eischeid, has been initiated as a logical outgrowth of her continuing research into music of the Holocaust period, which began in 1987. Since then she has commercially released her first compact disc of Holocaust music, Mystic Chords of Genocide, interviewed over 65 survivors of the Holocaust period, and is currently writing a book about SS officer Maria Mandl and the Auschwitz Women's Orchestra. To date, she has presented over 200 lecture/recitals of Holocaust music throughout the United States and Europe. Through these activities she became acquainted with German composer Stefan Heucke, who recently completed and produced an opera about the Auschwitz orchestra to international acclaim.

Other Minds 15
7pm Panel Discussion with Composers
8pm Concert
The final evening of Other Minds 15 begins with the world premiere of Gyan Riley’s (b. 1977) When Heron Sings Blue, which weaves opportunities for virtuosic improvisation among evocative melodies. The hybrid nature of Riley’s writing, with influences from North Indian raga, avant-garde jazz, and classical guitar repertoire, is perfectly reflected in his instrumentation: a doubling violin/violist joins an electric bassist and multi-faceted percussionist, while Riley displays the chops that earned him the first full guitar scholarship ever given by the San Francisco Conservatory of Music.
From 1971 to 1982, Tom Johnson (b. 1939) was the voice of New York’s downtown new music scene, as a critic for the Village Voice. His own music does show some “minimalist” features, but works such as Combinations use simple means in structures relying on formulas, permutations, and predictable sequences. Johnson will take the stage to narrate Eggs and Baskets, another highly logical and simultaneously uproarious musical construction.
The final performance of the evening is the world premiere of Pandæmonium by Carla Kihlstedt (b. 1971). This set of pieces is inspired by Humphrey Jennings’s collection of texts reacting to “the coming of the machine.” These reactions to the industrial revolution, dating from 1660 to 1885, are reconstructed through the lens of both literal readings and ROVA Saxophone Quartet’s vast vocabulary of improvisation and extended techniques, offering an emotionally captivating conclusion to Other Minds 15.
Carla Kihlstedt's Pandæmonium is presented in partnership with ROVA:Arts.

Wooden Fish Ensemble celebrates the music of Hyo-Shin Na
Koto Ninano, Koto Music, Night Procession of the Hundred Demons, Ocean/Shore 2 and Walking, Walking by Hyo-shin Na
The Wooden Fish Ensemble celebrates the music of Hyo-shin Na with performances of a selection of her works for mixed instruments. After studying piano and composition in her native Korea, Hyo-shin Na came to the US in 1983 to do graduate work at the Manhattan School of Music and the University of Colorado, where she received her doctorate. After moving to San Francisco in 1988, she met Cage, Rzewski, Wolff and Takahashi, and encountered the music of Nancarrow. At the same time, she made return trips to Korea to hear and study traditional Korean music while also taking a broad interest in the music of other regions of Asia. Her writing for combinations of western and eastern instruments is unusual in its refusal to compromise the integrity of differing sounds and ideas; she prefers to let them interact, coexist and conflict in the music.

The London Quintet
CHAMBER CONCERT FEATURES THE BRAHMS AND MOZART CLARINET QUINTETS AT THE CROWDEN SCHOOL ON MARCH 7
Local audiences will have a unique opportunity to hear the two major works for clarinet quintet at the Crowden Music Center on Sunday, March 7 at 7:30 p.m. First on the program is Mozart’s 1789 work for string quartet and clarinet, which will be followed by the Brahms quintet composed almost 100 years later, in 1891.
The performers for this special concert, members of the London Quintet, are Zina Schiff and Oscar Hasbun, violins, Steve Machtinger, viola, Louella Hasbun, cello, and Larry London, clarinet.
Mozart wrote his Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, K. 581, for the clarinetist Anton Stadler. One of the first known works featuring clarinet, the four-movement quintet was originally composed for basset horn but is usually played today on a clarinet in A. Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto in A major was also written for Stadler as was his earlier work, the Kegelstatt Trio (1786), for clarinet, viola, and piano.
Drawing on the model of Mozart’s clarinet quintet—and also inspired by a clarinetist-- Brahms, who had actually stopped writing music, began composing again after hearing Richard Muhlfeld play the clarinet in 1891. The sublime Clarinet Quintet was written for Muhlfeld and was one of several other works featuring clarinet composed by Brahms in the same year. These include his Trio for Clarinet, Cello, and Piano and his two Clarinet Sonatas.

Chamber Music Concert
Members and friends of the Palo Alto Philharmonic will perform a treasured chamber work: Mendelssohn's 'Octet in E-flat major, Op. 20'. Written for double string quartet at the age of 16, it is considered one of his early masterpieces. A delight to the audience ear and for the musicians to play.
Wagner penned 'Siegfried Idyll' for a small chamber orchestra as a birthday present to his second wife, Cosima, after the birth of their son Siegfried in 1869.Today, it is often performed in Wagner's full orchestral version, but you will get the rare chance to hear it as originally intended.
Rounding out the program are two works for flute and clarinet. Heitor Villa-Lobos' 'Chôros No. 2 for Flute and Clarinet' is a duet written in 1924, an early part of that series of compositions. Rarely-hear French composer Maurice Emmanuel wrote 'Sonate Op. 11 for Flute, Clarinet and Piano

Rather than a traditional classical chamber music concert of three works with an intermission, the Cypress features one work that the group discusses in depth and performs. The quartet contextualizes the featured piece through musical examples, discussion and performances of additional single movements or short works. They then follow this explanation with a performance of the featured piece in its entirety. During the performance, the audience has the opportunity to develop an intimate relationship with the featured music as well as with the performers through their explanations. Past audience members have commented that it’s a unique concert experience that demystifies classical music and offers insight into the creative process.

Ives Quartet with Jerome Simas, clarinet
The Palo Alto-based Ives Quartet has established a reputation for passion, precision, and provocative programming, winning accolades for playing that shows both refined technique and artistry. The quartet has attracted critical enthusiasm for championing an eclectic repertoire that combines established masterworks with underappreciated gems, neglected early-twentieth-century scores and commissioned new pieces. Clarinetist Jerome Simas, who has held Principal and Acting Principal positions with the San Francisco Symphony, San Francisco Opera, Oakland East Bay Symphony, California Symphony and the Left Coast Chamber Ensemble, joins the Ives Quartet as guest artist for this concert to perform the Brahms Clarinet Quintet in b minor, Op. 115.
There will be a pre-concert talk at 6pm with Kai Christiansen.

Praised by San Francisco Chronicle music critic Joshua Kosman for his "strong, fearless execution," "depth of feeling," and "fiery elegance and formal command", Thomas Schultz has established an international reputation both as an interpreter of music from the classical tradition—particularly Bach, Beethoven, Schubert and Liszt—and as one of the leading exponents of the music of our time. He has worked closely with such eminent composers as John Cage, Morton Feldman, Christian Wolff, Frederic Rzewski, Earle Brown, Jonathan Harvey and Elliott Carter (in performances of the Double Concerto at the Colorado Music Festival and at Alice Tully Hall in New York). For this concert he focuses solely on music of the 20th century, with works by Cage, Rzewski and Hyo-shin Na.

Sundays @ Four: Nathan Olson, violin, & Arkadi Serper, piano
Up-and-coming violinist and Crowden alumnus Nathan Olson returns home for a joyous musical reunion with pianist Arkadi Serper in Crowden's Sundays @ Four chamber music series on March 21!
Sundays @ Four presents internationally-respected chamber musicians in casual and intimate concerts. Artists speak about each work and composer, revealing their personal inspirations and insights, and mingle with the audience in free receptions following the concerts.
Born and raised in Berkeley, Nathan Olson is emerging as an important new talent after his graduation from Cleveland Institute of Music’s prestigious Concertmaster Academy, where he studied with Cleveland Orchestra Concertmaster William Preucil (other teachers include Itzhak Perlman and Crowden founder Anne Crowden). Also a dedicated chamber musician, Olson won the silver medal at the 2005 Fischoff International Chamber Music Competition as a member of the Kashii String Quartet with fellow Crowden alums Aaron and David Requiro. Olson will reunite with his former teacher at The Crowden School, pianist and composer Arkadi Serper, to perform a program of Stravinsky, Prokofiev, and Grieg.
Russian-born composer, pianist, and educator Arkadi Serper is known for his soulful and impassioned performances as a soloist, a collaborative chamber musician, and as half of the two-piano team "Scorpio Duo" with fellow Crowden faculty member Miles Graber. He has served on Crowden’s faculty since 1992, teaching in The Crowden School, the John Adams Young Composers Program, and Crowden's community division.

Earplay 25: Outside In
Outside In features Bay Area innovation with two world premieres of new commissioned works. A complex one by Brian Ferneyhough pupil Chris Trebue Moore, Amnesia Barrier for flute, clarinet and piano and Through the Golden Gate for the full Earplay ensemble by Lori Dobbins illustrates the stylistic fluency of the Earplay musicians.
Two similar yet different solo piano pieces, Judith Weir’s serious The Art of Touching the Keys and Michael Finnissy’s quirky Freight Train Bruise add contrast with composers from the British Isles. Trio, Op.45 (1946) by Arnold Schoenberg firmly anchors the program in “modern” music—harmonic and melodic language in which traditional tonal centers are abandoned and each tone is regarded as equal in expressivity and importance.

Quartets # 3: Music of Erich korngold & Viktor Ullmann, performed by The Bridge Players
Erich Korngold (1897-1957) and Viktor Ullmann (1898-1944) were Jewish composers from Bohemia. Korngold immigrated to Hollywood in 1934 and became a celebrated composer of film music, winning an Academy Award for his score to The Adventures of Robin Hood. Viktor Ullmann remained in Europe, writing and teaching, and in 1942 was sent to Theresienstadt. He died in Auschwitz-Birkenau.
Interestingly, each composer wrote his third and final string quartet in the early 1940s. How do these quartets serve as a passionate summation of their musical output? Does the music itself express the different circumstances under which they were written? The Bridge Players, led by violinist Randall Weiss, will perform both string quartets and answer these questions.

ZOFO 20FingerOrchestra
As one of only a few ensembles worldwide focusing on piano duets, ZOFO is reviving hidden gems of the one-piano-four-hands repertoire along with a strong emphasis on performing 20th and 21st Century music. By also playing arrangements of famous orchestral pieces, ZOFO explores the realm that many composers first experienced their symphonic works. ZOFO believes that the piano duet is the most intimate form of chamber music, with the two performers playing synchronized interwoven lines on one instrument. The choreography of the four hands is as beautiful to watch as the rich tapestry of sounds dancing out of the piano. ZOFO is deeply committed to enrich the piano duet repertoire by commissioning new works each year.
