MUSIC IN EXCESS: A
CONCERT OF UKRAINIAN AVANT-GARDE MUSIC
HYBRID
|
|
|
Saturday, February 26 / 2 to 3 pm
|
|
|
|
In conjunction with the exhibition Painting in Excess: Kyiv’s Art Revival,
1985–1993, the
concert features Ukrainian compositions from the 1980s and early
1990s, recreating the cultural atmosphere of this time. Selected with
the assistance of musicologist Dr. Leah Batstone from Vienna
University, the compositions reflect the trying and transitional
times of perestroika and the burst of creativity they engendered.
Works by late modern and postmodern Ukrainian composers include:
Volodymyr Runchak, Homo Ludens III (1991); Ivan Nebesnyy, Dialogue
with my own reflection (1992);
Valentyn Sylvestrov, Postlude No. 3 for Cello
and Piano (1981-82); and Yuri
Laniuk, Anticipation Sonata (1993).
Free and open to the public. This
is a hybrid program: Register to
attend in person or receive a link for the livestream. Concert is followed by a curator-led tour (in
person only).
Please Note: All attendees
are required to show proof of full vaccination or a negative COVID-19
PCR test, accompanied by photo ID or Rutgers My Campus
Pass. Please review the complete details on our Health &
Safety page.

in the video.

of Clémentien-Hélène Dufau and Ethel Smyth, on the NBCO YouTube channel. Then visit NBCO.org to
