Performers(‘) Present 2023: Homages
26 October • 7:30pm
Conservatory Orchestra HallABOUT THIS EVENT
Embark on a captivating journey of musical homage at our OpusNovus concert. With “Homages” as our theme, we explore the rich tapestry of compositions that pay tribute to great artists. Experience the intricate tapestry of Joyce Koh’s “Fingerprints for ensemble,” a work that pays homage to Bartók, Dutilleux, and Messiaen, immersing you in the brilliance of these musical masters. Toshio Hosokawa’s poignant “In Memory of Isang Yun” for piano trio offers a heartfelt tribute to a revered composer, while Adeline Wong’s “Empat” for string quartet weaves a delicate and evocative homage of its own. Peter Eötvös’s “Da capo,” based on sketches of Mozart, adds a witty and humorous touch to the evening, honoring the original prankster himself. It also features guest soloist Max Riefer of University of Music Lübeck on marimba. Don’t miss this evening of artistic homage and innovation!
