Suspensions Album Release Concert
Dec

6:30 PM18:30

Suspensions Album Release Concert

Join Chelsea Lane, harpist for the release concert and celebration of her debut album Suspensions. Released through Better Company Records, the album draws on contemporary, minimalist-inspired works to explore the theme of “suspensions,” both literal and figurative. Pairing newly commissioned works (by Ellis Ludwig-Leone and Molly Joyce) with Lane’s new transcriptions of existing works by contemporary composers (Thomas Adès, Nico Muhly, and Chris Cerrone), and a few staples of the solo harp repertory (by John Cage and Kate Moore), Suspensions is a delicately balanced, thoughtful debut. While primarily a solo harp album, Lane is joined on piano by Ludwig-Leone (of San Fermin) for his work “Processional,” as well as Nathan Schram (of the Grammy-winning Attacca Quartet) on viola for Ludwig-Leone’s eponymous “Suspensions."

Brooklyn-based harpist Chelsea Lane endeavors to bridge the ever-widening division between classical and popular music through her innovative programming of contemporary compositions. Chelsea is passionate about collaborating with other musicians, visual artists, and dancers to help achieve this goal.

Petr Altrichter, conductor

Marek Eben, moderator

Marek Eben will be the listener’s guide to the musical galaxies. What does a composer put into music, and what do the players and the conductors add? Is the score sacred, or can compositions be adapted somehow? And how does one get an orchestra to play the music just as the conductor imagines it? We invite you to the brand new, fun, and informative programme by Alice Nellis for everyone who wants to know more about music!

César Franck: The Symphony in D minor, Mov. II  

Antonín Dvořák: Legends, Op.59, Mov. VI
