THE LIMITS OF ENLIGHTENMENT: Dan Lippel's program will explore experimentation on the guitar through the lens of compositional rigor. Featuring works by c)i composers: the prismatic historicity of c)i's Douglas Boyce's third Partita and the poetic embodiment of sound in selections from Kyle Bartlett's Eleven Aphorisms, as well as the hyperexpression of Diego Tedesco's Portrait for guitar and electronics, the evocation of Indian classical techniques on the western guitar in Vineet Shende's Suite in Raag Marva, and the mapping of Cuban popular rhythms onto a modernist pitch language in Tania Leon's Paisanos Semos.
In this season you'll see and hear the pluralism of counter)induction's mission, bringing together composers diverse in identity and aesthetic, but all manifesting our foundational notions - that the smaller can be bigger, the rare can bring to the surface the universal and the true, and the esoteric resonates with the everyday.
Works by Kyle Bartlett, Douglas Boyce, Tania Leon, Vineet Shende, Diego Tedesco.
