JAMES BURCH
Phong Tran - Durability Problems (2017)
Corey Cunningham - from down here (2016)
Austin-based cellist James Burch presents two works for solo cello. Phong Tran's Durability Problems combines a raw physicality and an infectious rhythmic sense, resulting in a barrage of virtuosity. Corey Cunningham's from down here, drawing inspiration from the works of Rothko, presents three short character studies, each of which is an exploration and development of a small set of ideas.

JOHN CORKILL
Seung-Won Oh - Circle (2004)
Kyong Mee Choi- Flowerlips (2006)
Percussionist John Corkill performs two works by Chicago composers Seung-Won Oh and Kyong Mee Choi. In both pieces, sonic material is influenced by each composers relationship to elements and organisms found within nature. Through these individual relationships, each of these pieces provides beautifully unique insight to help investigate and assimilate artistic interpretation to ones natural surroundings.

SHANNA GUTIERREZ
Eric Chasalow- Ariel Fantasy (2017)
Claus-Steffen Mahnkopf - atsiminimas (2016)
Two new works explore the concept of flutist as dramaturge in a literal and imagined sense. Eric Chasalow's new work "Ariel Fantasy" incorporates an Ariel's Song of Shakespeare's "The Tempest" into a monodrama for flute solo, in which the flutist must sing, speak, chatter, dance, play, and otherwise bring to life this wonderful text. The title of Claus-Steffen Mahnkopf's new work for Kingma bass flute, "atsminimas," refers to the concept of memory or recollection, and requires the flutist to constantly negotiate multiple staves of music, interrupting herself or creating a continuity of musical memory and drama as the music evolves over the course of the piece into something that is a recollection of the itself. Taken on their own terms, the two composers couldn't be more different in their aesthetics. Together they create an enacted fantastical drama and dialogue between instrument, player and score. Both works were written for and premiered by Shanna Gutierrez.

TOWER DUO
Erin Helgeson Torres, flute
Michael Rene Torres, saxophone
Charlie Wilmoth - Three Pieces (2013)
Michael Rene Torres - Four Short Episodes (2011)
Haling from Columbus, OH, Tower Duo performs the music of Ohio composers, Charlie Wilmoth and Michael Rene Torres. Torres Four Short Episodes explores the timbral possibilities of the flute and saxophone combination and depicts four different stages of a dramatic, intricate, and sometimes explosive dialogue between two characters. Wilmoths Three Pieces is repetitive, yet never sits still, keeping the performers on high alert - playing together at various points but then quickly splitting apart to interrupt or distract one another. The work has much to do with the way the performers move together as they perform.
