SUMMARY:28th Annual MATA Festival: Night Three: Local Music
DESCRIPTION:‘Local music’ refers to Feldman’s focused exploration of isolated\, quiet\, and intimate sound moments – the “local” action of a single note or chord over the overall structure\, creating a physical sound-world that emphasizes the tactile\, immediate properties of sound. The seven-member BlackBox Ensemble (flute/clarinet/piano/percussion/violin/cello/voice)\, conducted by Leonard Bopp\, plays finely detailed scores by Laila Arafah\, Erich Barganier\, Kristupas Bubnelis\, Gillian Rae Perry\, Floriana Provenzano\, and Jessica Shand. Rounding out the program are two iconic works by Feldman from the 1970s: For Frank O’Hara\, and I Met Heine on the Rue Fürstenberg.

SUMMARY:Ensemble Fantasque: Beyond Urban
DESCRIPTION:Whether subconscious or not\, these composers are affected by their own environment. Varèse’s output is influenced by sounds of the city\, which can be heard in his Octandre. Wuorinen’s New York Notes reflects the city’s liveliness and bustle. On the other hand\, Schoenberg and Amelia Brey\, who live in urban surroundings\, express things that transcend beyond the sounds of the streets in their music. Yet\, both come up with music that is different in style and expression. To what extent are these composers really affected by urban life?

SUMMARY:Immersive Symphony Concert: Sublime Schubert
DESCRIPTION:As you take your seat INSIDE A FULL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA\, you will be overwhelmed as you see\, feel and hear the incredibly moving and captivating music of Franz Schubert–music that pulls you into a world of mystery and suspense\, yet bold\, expansive and unstoppable. Enjoy a reception with the performers following the concert. \nAudience Comments:\n“Absolutely and positively one of the best experiences ever!

I have never in my life engaged with music as holistically or dramatically—as ecstatically—as I did while sitting on stage among those musicians. Indeed\, I have never been so fully enveloped like that in such magnificent sound. It was a thrill of a lifetime!”

SUMMARY:Stephen Beus in Recital
DESCRIPTION:Pianist Stephen Beus returns to the stage on January 28 at DiMenna Center for a recital that traces a compelling arc from Baroque elegance to Romantic transcendence. The program opens with the poised brilliance of Johann Sebastian Bach’s English Suite No. 3\, interwoven with the refined charm of Jean-Philippe Rameau\, before moving into the rhythmic vitality and introspective richness of Nikolai Medtner.

Known for his intellectual depth\, tonal imagination\, and fearless virtuosity\, Beus offers a recital that is both rigorously crafted and emotionally immersive\, inviting listeners into a journey across centuries of keyboard expression.

SUMMARY:Musica Ricercata
DESCRIPTION:This program pairs two masterworks linked by the idea of “ricercata\,” or “sought music.” \nThe concert opens with György Ligeti’s Musica ricercata (1951-53) in a new arrangement. The title is literal: Ligeti’s goal was to “build a new music from nothing\,” with each of the eleven movements systematically adding new pitches. You may recognize parts of it from the popular Six Bagatelles for Wind Quintet\, which were drawn from this original piano work. \nThis theme of searching continues with Dvořák’s Piano Quintet No. 2\, Op. 81. This radiant\, beloved work is the result of Dvořák’s own 15-year search for the perfect quintet. After destroying his first attempt (Op. 5)\, he returned to the form to create this undisputed masterpiece of chamber music.

SUMMARY:OF SORROW BORN - Michael Hersch's works for solo instruments
DESCRIPTION:A composer of “uncompromising brilliance” (The Washington Post) whose work has been described by The New York Times as “viscerally gripping and emotionally transformative music … claustrophobic and exhilarating at once\, with moments of sublime beauty nestled inside thickets of dark virtuosity\,” Michael Hersch appears as both composer and pianist in NYC for the first time in over seven years along with two of his closest collaborators\, violinist Miranda Cuckson and cellist Coleman Itzkoff. The program includes the world premiere of “Es beginnt” after poetry of another close Hersch collaborator\, poet Anja Utler. \nWhen Hersch last performed his own music in New York alongside Cuckson\, the event was named among the “Top Ten Performances of 2018” by New York Classical Review\, writing that “both players tested the limits of tonal range and virtuosity on their instruments\, while exploring mostly the darker side of human experience.”
