Title:
Nyx & Eris (2007 - 2008), I: Nyx, by Paul Hembree
Description:
Visit http://www.cu-pendulum.com for more information on the Pendulum New Music Series at the University of Colorado at Boulder College of Music. Nyx & Eris (2007 - 2008), Movement I: Nyx, for large chamber ensemble, by Paul Hembree Program Notes: "This is music about old gods and celestial mechanics. Nyx, the Greek goddess of Night, and Eris, the Greek goddess of Discord were chosen as titles for the two attaca movements because they embody the character of the musical elements in each - Nyx is calm, nocturnal, and mysterious, while Eris is raucously dissonant and extroverted. Though the harmonic language in both movements is very dense, there is almost no true atonality - harmonic fields, symmetrical scales and structures, and linear voice leading govern almost all pitched material, along with heterophony and closely woven imitiative polyphony. The recent discovery in 2003 of a solar system object larger than Pluto, now named Eris, at a more distant, inclined and eccentric orbit, along with the discovery of other fascinating scattered disk and Kuiper belt objects, were major sources of inspiration for this piece." Nyx & Eris was commissioned as part of the 2007 Edward Levy Prize by the University of Colorado at Boulder. Performers featured: The Arundo Winds Cobus DuToit, flutes Sarah Mellander, oboe Jerome Fleg, clarinets Kaori Uno, bassoon Megan Garrison, horn Alex Maynegre, piano The Tasman String Quartet Anna van der Zee, violin 1 James Andrewes, violin 2 Chris van der Zee, viola Miranda Wilson, cello Brandon Houghtalen, conductor Please visit the following websites for more information on the composer or the featured ensembles: http://www.paulhembree.com http://www.colorado.edu/music/arundo/ http://www.tasmanstringquartet.com (under construction) Copyright 2008 Paul Hembree (ASCAP)
