SOLI presents a colorful and exciting program with a world premiere of Carl Schimmels’ Three Paintings of Marvin Cone as well as a work by Cross-Country Chamber Consortium winner Kyle Rivera, Anaglyph: A Repository of Imaginary Languages.
Galaxies takes the listener on a journey through a brilliant array of musical textures, colors, and ideas - each held together by a distinct compositional voice much as gravitational attraction binds billions of stars together with gas and dust into visually stunning galaxies. Jennifer Hidgon’s Piano Trio leads the listener through vibrant and colorful soundscapes.

Galaxies takes the listener on a journey through a brilliant array of musical textures, colors, and ideas – each held together by a distinct compositional voice much as gravitational attraction binds billions of stars together with gas and dust into visually stunning galaxies. Jennifer Hidgon’s Piano Trio leads the listener through vibrant and colorful soundscapes. Carl Schimmel’s Three Paintings of Marvin Cone evokes the duality of naturalistic impressionism against abstraction as inspired by the paintings of Marvin Cone. A new commission by Kyle Rivera, winner of this year’s Cross-Country Chamber Consortium award, of which SOLI is a founding member, is at the center of this concert. Anaglyph – A Repository of Imaginary Languages explores the nuance of language – phonetics, morphology, constituency, and syntax – through the lens of a musical language as deciphered by the performers. Jennifer Bellor’s A Grey Dream takes a step back into the moody and gentle atmosphere of a quaint rainy evening. The concert ramps back up to a powerful close with a past SOLI commission. Overland Dream by Peter Lieuwen plays with vital rhythms and creates a lively interplay between instruments.
