Six Mallet Marimba, composed and performed by AME’s Robert Paterson, is comprised entirely of works born of Paterson’s newly-developed and impressive six-mallet technique. It is the first-ever album to feature only six-mallet works, advancing the repertoire significantly through Paterson’s technique, which allows for richer harmonic language and expanded range of motion. The second album, Wood and Forest, boasts an array of pieces by Paterson, Kenji Bunch, Jacob Bancks, Carlos Sanchez-Gutierrez, and Michael Torke, performed by Japanese marimba virtuoso, Makoto Nakura. Both discs will be ushered in by an exceptional release concert, “Modern Marimba,” on Wednesday, November 14, 7:00 PM at the Rubin Museum of Art (150 West 17 Street, New York, NY). The program will feature performances by Paterson, Nakura, and members of AME, showcasing selected works from each album. Paterson's performances will demonstrate his pioneering six-mallet technique, including the world premiere of his Mandala, for marimba duo, for NEW FROM AMERICAN MODERN RECORDINGS: Robert Paterson’s Six Mallet Marimba + Makoto Nakura’ – page 2 which he will be joined by Nakura.

    The University at Buffalo Department of Music and The Robert & Carol Morris Center for 21st Century Music present Stockhausen's Mantra For Two Pianos Eric Huebner and Steven Beck, pianos Sound and electronic interface design: Ryan MacEvoy McCullough Sound projection: Chris Jacobs and Ryan MacEvoy McCullough Saturday, October 14, 2017 7:30pm Lippes Concert Hall in Slee Hall PROGRAM Mantra (1970) Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928 – 2007) Program Note by Katherine Chi To say it as simply as possible, Mantra, as it stands, is a miniature of the way a galaxy is composed. When I was composing the work, I had no accessory feelings or thoughts; I knew only that I had to fulfill the mantra. And it demanded itself, it just started blossoming. As it was being constructed through me, I somehow felt that it must be a very true picture of the way the cosmos is constructed, I’ve never worked on a piece before in which I was so sure that every note I was putting down was right. And this was due to the integral systemization - the combination of the scalar idea with the idea of deriving everything from the One. It shines very strongly. - Karlheinz Stockhausen Mantra is a seminal piece of the twentieth century, a pivotal work both in the context of Stockhausen’s compositional development and a tour de force contribution to the canon of music for two pianos. It was written in 1970 in two stages: the formal skeleton was conceived in Osaka, Japan (May 1 – June 20, 1970) and the remaining work was completed in Kürten, Germany (July 10 – August 18, 1970).

  • Composer Robert Paterson Celebrates 50Th Birthday with Premieres and a New Album the Four Seasons – out April 24
    FEBRUARY 19, 2020 CONTACT: STUART WOLFERMAN [email protected] 718-938-7679 Composer Robert Paterson celebrates 50th birthday with premieres and a new album The Four Seasons – Out April 24 This spring, the composer enjoys three Carnegie Hall performances, including two world premieres, and the culmination of his 20-year-long “Four Seasons” project. Spring 2020 marks a particularly busy and celebratory period for composer Robert Paterson. Called a “modern day master” by the New York Times, Paterson’s String Quartet No. 3 will be premiered at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Hall on March 5 by the Indianapolis String Quartet. On April 17, he celebrates his 50th birthday and the release of his 21-song Four Seasons project (out April 24 on Paterson’s American Modern Recordings). On May 6, the Oratorio Society of New York, under Kent Tritle, will perform Paterson’s Whitman’s America. Paterson’s ability to set text has been widely praised, with Gramophone stating that he “could probably set a telephone book to music and create something that captivates.” In The Four Seasons the composer has set the poems of Ann Stanford, Sharan Strange, Wallace Stevens, keep reading Dorothea Tanning, to name a few. The world premiere recording consists of four song-cycles (21 songs), written over the last 20 years, for four voice types (each representing a different season). The four singers on the album are soprano Marnie Breckenridge, mezzo-soprano Blythe Gaissert, tenor Alok Kumar, and bass-baritone David Neal. In 2014, the six Winter Songs were released as part of a broader collection.
