  • Abstracts & Program Notes
    ABSTRACTS & PROGRAM NOTES Admiral, Roger see Tardif, Guillaume (Hubert Léonard and The Belgian School of Violin Playing) Alexander, Justin Performance: A Confluence of Cultures in Flute and Percussion Music This flute and percussion program addresses the conference call for diversity by comprising works from three different continents. All three works are similarly contemporary in form and composition date, yet each draw from age old traditions in which the composer was enculturated or acculturated. More specifically, the program encompasses an amalgamation of the Western classical genre with the indigenous musics of Colombia, Egypt, and India. The program begins with a short selection called Pa’ Chicho, for flute and maracas. It is a recently composed work by Colombian composer Walter Menesses, in the folk music style of a pasillo. This form, particularly popular in Ecuador and Colombia in the 19th century, is still popular today, especially in Popayán, where the composer is based. Premiered in 1995, the second work is by Egyptian composer Halim El-Dahb, who passed away in 2017. Big Tooth Aspen for flute and darbucca is a three-movement work based on life, death and resurrection in each respective movement titled “Twigs,” “Droopy Flowers,” and “Hairy Seeds in the Wind.” Additionally, the flute uses many extended techniques throughout the piece, including pitch bending, multiphonics, and singing while playing. The final selection titled Devil Dance, also for flute and darbucca, is by Peyton MacDonald. This work, and many others by this American composer, is based on Hindustani themes from his extensive training in the East Indian tabla tradition. The work also features multiphonics by the flutist through simultaneous singing and playing.
