Adam Chamber Music Festival: Fandango | Nelson, New Zealand | Concert Schubert’s heart-breakingly beautiful Cello Quintet, the favourite Desert Island Disc of many music lovers, crowns this line-up of brilliant and innovative musical delights. Ross Harris heard the NZSQ's ‘Goldberg Variations’ and "became obsessed” – his Variation 25 is the highly expressive result. The Bartok Dances are given a new twist with guitar accompaniment, and there could be dancing in the aisles to the Fandango from Boccherini's famous Quintet!

San Francisco Contemporary Music Players: Furious Craft | San Francisco CA | Program: Luca Francesconi, A fuoco (1995) (U.S. premiere) Kaija Saariaho, Sept Papillons (2000) Zhou Long, Wild Grass (2002) Pierre Boulez, Le Marteau sans maître (1955) Featuring: Janna Baty, mezzo-soprano Leighton Fong, cello Stephen Harrison, cello Four works of intensity and craftsmanship warm this winter concert. David Milnes and the players delve into a rarely performed masterpiece by Pierre Boulez and a smoldering work by Luca Francesconi, featuring new ensemble member David Tanenbaum on guitar. Boulez’s unusual composition, for flute, guitar, viola, three percussion and mezzo-soprano, is widely regarded as his first great work. Complementing the ensemble pieces are two cello solos that ponder life’s ephemeral nature. There will be a pre-concert talk before the concert. Guests TBA. $28 general, $23 senior, $10 student Order on our tickets page or call 415-978-ARTS (2787) Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Forum 701 Mission Street at 3rd Street, San Francisco Pre-concert talk begins at 7:15 pm. |

Program: Pierre Boulez, Le Marteau sans maître for mezzo-soprano, flute, guitar, viola and three percussion Widely regarded as Boulez’s first masterpiece, this celebrated, rarely performed work uses familiar Western instruments to create Eastern sounds that would have been exotic to Boulez’s first audiences.

Contemporary Insights: Music and Conversation - Elliott Carter's Luimen | San Francisco CA | This piece will be performed again on the following evening at Herbst Theatre as part of American Mosaic, a concert of American music. About the piece: Elliott Carter, who celebrates his 100th birthday this year, is widely regarded as one of America's greatest composers. In this piece, fast-moving mandolin lines and a soloistic guitar section (played by new ensemble member David Tanenbaum) interweave with the sounds of trumpet, trombone, harp and vibraphone. This unconventional mix of instruments gives the piece it's unique, glittering texture. The Players: Jeff Biancalana, trumpet; Hall Goff, trombone; David Tanenbaum, guitar; Paul Binkley, mandolin; Karen Gottlieb, harp; William Winant, vibraphone.
