Press Release: Sonic Harvest Spotlights New Work
Join us at 7:30 Sunday evening, Oct. 18 at Northbrae Community Church in Berkeley for the latest crop of new music from the East Bay. Visit http://sonicharvest.org for details.
There’s more! Claudia Stevens will premiere her own Teaching Moments for piano solo, and will accompany baritone Allen Shearer in a Neruda setting No estés lejos de mí. Finally Anne Hege will conduct Voci Women’s Vocal Ensemble in her setting of words of St. Francis of Assisi, from her larger work The Body is NOT a Machine. Voci will also perform Ann Callaway’s Henry Purcell on the poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins.
The tantalizing program begins with Peter Josheff’s Big Brother, a brief piccolo solo played by Tod Brody. After the program you will have a chance to dialog with the composers in a Q and A. Don’t miss it!
