Additional works to be announced
This engaging program of modern chamber
works features a quintet for clarinet and strings
composition by Argentinian born Osvaldo Golijov.
His upbringing exposed him to a diversity of
musical influences including tango, klezmer, and
traditional classical. The piece “The Dreams and
Prayers of Isaac the Blind” recalls the writings of
Isaac, the Kabbalist rabbi, who believed that
everything in the universe was a “product of
combinations of the Hebrew alphabet’s letters.”
Also featured is a work by well-known American
minimalist Terry Riley and Gabriela Lena Frank
- a contemporary American composer whose
captivating music embodies influences of both
European classical tradition and Latin American
folklore.
