New Music Works "Continuation"

Friday, January 23
7:30 PM, 2009,
UCSC Music Center Recital Hall

NMW's 30th anniversary is celebrated with a concert of stunning virtuosities and far reaching musical perspectives. The evening erupts with the riveting trumpet music of Steed Cowart's Bladewalker, juxtaposed with a new solo dance by celebrated choreographer Sommer Ulrickson. Enchanted Glass by Canadian composer Janet Danielson offers an electrifying marriage of Chinese zheng, (board zither) and harpsichord, and Philip Collins' new work for solo guitar draws from the improvisational practices of Mediterranean cultures. NMW Ensemble performs Osvaldo Golijov's gentle-to-turbulent Lullaby and Doina, a lyrical evocation of European Gypsy life. New Zealander Jack Body's epic ode to the American tradition, Tribute to the Blues, brought down the house at its premiere by NMW in 2005.
