Curious Flights Presents "Cultural Fusion"
San Francisco-based Valinor Winds will perform a world premiere commission by Bay Area composer Joseph Stillwell entitled Fantasy Pieces on the opening concert of Curious Flights' inaugural season Friday, April 26, 2013. Writing in San Francisco Classical Voice, Janos Gereben called the March 2012 world premiere of Stillwell's Quartet for Clarinet, Violin, Cello and Piano "instantly appealing, gorgeously tonal simply beautiful."
The program also showcases some of the Bay Area's foremost contemporary music ensembles and performers including Lithuanian-Canadian soprano Indre Viskontas, a member of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music faculty and Co-founder and Director of Vocallective, performing Updike's Science by Brian Holmes with Nonsemble 6 pianist and Trinity Alps Chamber Music Festival Founder Ian Scarfe. Violinist Kevin Rogers, also of Nonsemble 6 and Friction Quartet, joins Mr. Guy and Miles Graber for Aram Khachaturian's Trio for Violin, Clarinet and Piano. Aleron Trio will present Paul Schoenfield's Café Music for violin, cello and piano. Completing the program is a rare performance of Arnold Bax's Nonet with the Curious Flights Chamber Ensemble conducted by Brenden Guy.
