Program Note
"Bass Play -- Divertimento Gestures for Flute, Oboe and Bass Clarinet"
This short but challenging work for woodwind trio is composed in a mostly abstract contemporary idiom that playfully explores fleeting, evanescent “gestures” and virtuosic filigrees of sound among the three instruments in 13 brief suite-like settings.
As sometimes fortunately happens, this work received its world premiere on April 2, 2017, at the hands of courageous champions of new music, the resident Poné Ensemble at the University of New Paltz.
