This event premieres FRI, JUNE 18, 2021 @8PM Pacific and is available on demand through JULY 18, 2021.
In our on STAGE series, we shine a spotlight on West Coast composers to celebrate some of the brightest luminaries from the Bay Area. Resident rockstar John Adams demonstrates his technical prowess in the riveting, large-ensemble work Son of Chamber Symphony. We present a new work by Caroline Shaw commissioned exclusively by San Francisco Contemporary Music Players, written for instrumental quartet and celebrated Bay Area sound artist and vocalist Pamela Z . The inexpressible Amadeus Regucera thrills us with textual utterances and deep breaths and Los Angeles’ Andrew Norman takes us on a sonic journey through the interior light of the Basilica of Saint Sabina.
