Events Description

 

In celebration of Asian Heritage Month, Conductor Naomi Woo curates a program of new music by composers inspired by coastal soundscapes. Montreal-based composer Keiko Devaux’s Ere captures the random complexity of a flock of birds in flight. Former VSO Composer in Residence Jocelyn Morlock’s Blue Sun (for violin and viola) evokes the ghostly afterimage that lingers after a glimpse of the sun. Her Icarus, Landing explores the shifting mental states as an illness winds its way to an inexorable close. Vancouver-based composer Robyn Jacob’s A World in Each responds to the 75th commemoration of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Naomi Woo takes to the piano to perform Alexina Louie’s “Memories in an Ancient Garden”, from Scenes from a Jade Terrace. The program flows to a conclusion with Devaux’s Ebb, an extraordinary study in the fluidity of nature.
