2014-2015 Left Coast Chamber Ensemble Set 5 - Left Coast Goes to the Museum (Mill Valley)
Two exquisitely contrasting artworks, one black and one gold, displayed in Gallery 16 of the de Young Museum, serve as inspiration for the six emerging composers commissioned to write new works for this program. Both sculptures create art out of leftovers: Learning of an arson attack on a church that had a predominantly African American congregation, Cornelia Parker collected the charred remains of the building and constructed Anti-Mass, which seems to float in the gallery, defying gravity. On the opposite wall is El Anatsui's Hovor II; he transformed discarded bottle tops into an enormous opulent wall hanging. Completing this program are impromptus by Thea Musgrave and Robert Schumann, and the uproarious Lady Chatterly's Dream, composed by New York Philharmonic bassist Jon Deak.
Robert Schumann Piano Impromptus on a Theme by Clara Schumann, op. 5
