Gently lunging melodies combine to produce a bustling tapestry of sound. Turn literally turns over its phrases, varying upon each repetition. Once I decided to dedicate this piece to my mother, an inveterate knitter, it struck me: that’s exactly what a turn is in knitting, a reworking on top of an already established stitched pattern! On a larger level Turn pushes towards build-ups that end each time with a literal turn in direction. This in a major way constitutes the modus operandi of the piece.

Gerald Barry's the Intelligence Park
Gerald Barry’s opera The Intelligence Park at IMMA Gerald Barry’s opera, The Intelligence Park, widely regarded as one of the most innovative and compelling operas of recent times, will be presented in a concert performance at the Irish Museum of Modern Art on Wednesday 18 May 2011. Described by The Irish Times in 1990 as “the most original piece of music to come out of Ireland this century”, the opera is set in Dublin in 1753 and embraces love, power, prison and an eclipse of the sun. Presented in collaboration with Crash Ensemble, the production forms part of an exciting season of performances being staged at IMMA in May to mark the 20th anniversary of the Museum’s foundation in 1991. The Intelligence Park, to a libretto by Vincent Deane, tells of a composer, Robert Paradies, who has lost the power to write but rediscovers it through his obsession with an Italian singer, the castrato Serafino. However, a triangular love affair involving Paradies, Serafino and Jerusha – the daughter of a wealthy merchant whom Paradies has been advised to marry but who is also the object of Serafino’s affections – complicates matters, bringing with it anger, betrayal and a conflict between private love and public duty. When first produced in London for the Institute of Contemporary Arts/Almeida Festival in 1990, it met with an extraordinary critical response. For The London Evening Standard it was “a clenched fist of an opera.” The Independent said that “the joy of the opera… is that it is driven by music of an energy and pace unheard of in most contemporary work.

PROGRAM NOTES Born in Dublin, Donnacha Dennehy returned to Ireland after studies abroad at the University of Illinois, IRCAM (France) and the Netherlands. In 1997, he founded the Crash Ensemble, Dublin’s now renowned new music group, who performed many of Dennehy’s landmark works, including Grá Agus Bás (with the singer Iarla O’ Lionaird) and That the Night Come (with Dawn Upshaw). Dennehy joined the music faculty at Princeton University in 2014. His musical vocabulary draws on the scientific sonic analysis of French Spectralism, the intense repetitive energy of Dutch and American minimalism and his own Irish heritage.

Launched in 1993, initially as a national contemporary music summer school based at Wortley Hall – the trade union, Labour and Co-operative movements’ educational centre near Sheffield – its tutors were Diana Burrell, Simon Foxley, Mary King, Stephen Langridge, Gillian Moore, Daryl Runswick, John Tilbury, Tim Yealland and Judith Weir. Its purpose was to create an environment where amateur and professional musicians could come together to share their passion for new music. The CoMA summer school serves as the focus for commissioning new works suitable for amateur performance and Michael Finnissy’s Plain Harmony was the first such work to be commissioned, and the first to be flexibly scored. Ten years on, in 2003, this approach to instrumentation was to become central to CoMA’s commissioning policy following an invitation from Tate Liverpool for CoMA ensembles to perform music created in response to works in its Modern British Art postcard collection.

Irish contemporary music ensemble. Founded in 1997 by composer DONNACHA DENNEHY , conductor and pianist Andrew Synott and clarinettist Michael Seaver, the Crash Ensemble was established to fulfil the need in Ireland for a flexible and interdisciplinary performance ensemble influenced by groups such as Icebreaker in the United Kingdom and the New York based ensemble, the Bang on a Can All-Stars. The group’s repertoire is broad but it has earned a reputation for specialising in post-minimalist and experimental music while also appealing to contemporary classical, rock and alternative music audiences. The ensemble usually plays amplified while its instrumentation reflects the experimental nature of its repertoire, combining electric guitar, electronics and keyboards alongside a more conventional line-up of violin, viola, cello, double bass, flute, clarinet, trombone, piano and percussion.
