About this Event
Who says that chromatic music cannot be beautiful, expressive, humorous, or even alluring? Schoenberg’s Notturno contains lyricism that is similar yet different to Takemitsu’s Le son calligraphié I. The conversation between different characters in Carter’s Mosaic can also be heard in Seeger’s Music for Small Orchestra, yet both composers treat music conversation in their own ways. Ives’ songs live in many worlds: at times embodying fleeting joy, and at other times deep profound sentiments. Let Ensemble Fantasque redefine your perception of chromatic music in this concert.
