In Mozart’s Musikalisches Würfelspiel, dice rolls from our audience will determine the structure of the piece! We’ll dust off our old, battery powered, primary colored Simon game to perform Nicole Lizée’s Simon Interlude and play selections from György Kurtág’s collection of Játékok or quite literally “games” in Hungarian. Satie’s humorous and eccentric pieces about sports were conceived for a “haute couture artist's book" while Mozart’s iconic Kegelstatt Trio was written while lawn bowling! Winsor is excited to welcome composer and soprano Kate Soper to perform her piece Chutes and Ladders, featuring text by Virgil, diary entries, Markov chains, and board game rules. The New Yorker describes Kate as "one of the great originals of her generation.” Program: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Musikalisches Würfelspiel Erik Satie from Sports et divertissements Kate Soper Chutes and Ladders György Kurtág from Játékok Nicole Lizée Simon Interlude for Milton Bradley® Simon and ensemble Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Kegelstatt Trio Performers: Gabriela Díaz violin/viola Rane Moore clarinet Heng-Jin Park piano Kate Soper soprano

Winsor Music Presents: Lineage

Our popular annual Lineage concert asks a fascinating question this season: What makes a musician? This year we take a deep dive into the creative evolution of Anthony Cheung, one of today’s most exciting compositional voices. Anthony is an internationally sought after composer whose recent commissions include works for the LA Philharmonic, Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, Cleveland Orchestra and New York Philharmonic. He is a recipient of both a Guggenheim Fellowship and the Rome Prize. We will take you on a journey exploring composers, mentors, and the wildly diverse musicians who have influenced him! Alongside gorgeous works by Enescu, Dukas &amp; Bach plus vivacious music by Ligeti &amp; Ellington, we are thrilled to premiere a brand new piece by Anthony written for Winsor Music! The program also includes the third installment of our Opus 1 project in which Rane, Gabby, and Anthony will work with students from the Boston String Academy to create a new piece of music entirely of their own. This night of two special premieres and intriguing musical connections is not to be missed! Program: György Ligeti Five Pieces for Four-Hands George Enescu Carillon nocturne Tristan Murail Cloches d'adieu, et un sourire... "In memoriam Olivier Messiaen" Selections by Thelonius Monk and Duke Ellington Paul Dukas Sonnet de Ronsard Olivier Messiaen Vocalise&nbsp; Johann Sebastian Bach Prelude from Cello Suite No. 1 Sofia Gubaidulina from 10 Preludes for Solo Cello&nbsp; Anthony Cheung World Premiere Opus 1 Project World Premiere by students of the Boston String Academy ﻿ Performers: Gabriela Díaz violin Rane Moore clarinet Rafael Popper-Keizer cello Anthony Cheung &amp; Yoko Hagino piano

Winsor Music Presents City of Light

Winsor Music’s season of extraordinary musical journeys begins in Paris, epicenter of some of the most fantastic and influential art created in the 19th and 20th centuries. In a season highlight, the dynamic soprano&nbsp;Sonja Tengblad&nbsp;will perform Ravel's exquisite&nbsp;Trois Poèmes de Stéphane Mallarmé, a work of mysterious beauty and evocative power. In addition to sumptuous works by Lili Boulanger, Debussy, and Boulez, we also will showcase the more playful side of Parisian music with Poulenc’s charming&nbsp;Sonata for Two Clarinets&nbsp;and Francaix’s infectiously joyful&nbsp;String Trio. Join us for a musical journey through the City of Light!
