SALASTINA MUSIC SOCIETY CELEBRATES
FIVE YEARS WITH FIVE YOUNG L.A. COMPOSERS
In this season premiere event, Salastina Music Society will feature the music of five composers local to the Los Angeles area. Between them, they have won multiple Grammy awards, written music for film and TV, hold professorships at prestigious universities, and have numerous important commissions to their credit. Each composer will be interviewed on-stage before his composition is performed.

The composers whose works are featured in this program are: Jeremy Cavaterra (Salastina Music Society Composer in Residence), Andrew Norman (Rome Prize recipient, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Composer in Residence, and assistant professor at the USC Thornton School of Music), Adam Schoenberg (UCLA faculty, Charles Ives and Morton Gould prize winner, Kansas City Symphony Composer in Residence), Christopher Tin (two-time Grammy winner), and Philip White (film and television composer, currently for Ray Donovan and Supernatural).

About Salastina Music Society:
Currently entering its fifth season, the Salastina Music Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to presenting world-class performances of chamber music. To date, dozens of Salastina performances have been broadcast nationally on American Public Media's Performance Today. With the goals of broad audience appeal and innovative programming, Founders/Artistic Directors Maia Jasper and Kevin Kumar purposefully design each concert to be slightly shorter than the average classical music concert. The "Masterpiece Discovery" sub-series, hosted by KUSC's Brian Lauritzen, offers audiences a "guided tour" through a pillar of the repertoire. Other hallmarks of the Society are: visual and aural variety in ensemble combinations and repertoire; “free applause zones”; thoughtfully chosen new music; tangible audience participation; and extra-musical enhancements to the concert experience.

ROMITELLI: AN INDEX OF METALS
Queen Elizabeth Hall, London
South Bank, London SE1
United Kingdom
08700 606 096
http://www.rfh.org.uk

André de Ridder conductor
Hila Plitmann mezzo soprano
Sound Intermedia sound projection
Paolo Pachini video art
Leonardo Romoli video art
Tony Simpson lighting
London Sinfonietta



In the final months before his death at the age of just 41, Romitelli fulfilled a lifetime ambition: to create ‘an experience of total perception, plunging the spectator into a magma of sounds, shapes and colours’. Like the light shows of the 1960s or today’s rave-culture, Romitelli’s work thrusts you into a psychedelic new landscape where your every sense is heightened. Combining an ensemble and singer with electronic distortion, video screens, a light show and surround sound, this is opera as you’ve never known it.

“This is a multimedia opera with projections, three video screens and an orchestra that's amplified and processed, in many of the ways you would normally transform a rock guitar. But it's all done live, in the moment, and then spun around the room in surround sound.” Ian Dearden, London Sinfonietta Principal Player (electronics)

Being performed in London for the first time, with the original video art by Paolo Pachini and Leonardo Romoli, it promises 'a violent, abstract narrative denuded of all operatic artifice, providing an initiation rite of immersion and a trance of light and sound.'

New York composer John Corigliano has set three major poems by Dylan Thomas for large vocal and orchestral resources, with all the colour and appeal of his award-winning film scores. Richard Elfyn Jones’ overture, similarly, shows off the full resources of organ and orchestra. An evening of unforgettable and thrilling sounds.
