  • Arlene Sierra
    Arlene Sierra Urban Birds Arlene Sierra’s Urban Birds brings together three international soloists in a tour de force for three pianos with electronics, sampled birdsong, and percussion. The work combines spectacle with refined keyboard artistry, juxtaposing harmony, rhythmic drive, and sounds from nature. The work engages musically with one of the central preoccupations of our time: our relationship with the natural world. Urban Birds is in three movements: 1. Sylviid Babblers This movement features the extended song of the Blackcap with answers from related species known collectively as Sylviid Babblers, as well as from the pianos and a single crotale. 2. Skylark Loops A looped fragment of the Skylark's song is transcribed, manipulated, and repeated with percussive contributions from stopped piano strings and woodblock. 3. Cuculus-cornuta Cuckoo calls dominate this movement, punctuated by the guiro, until rogue elements are introduced in the form of an extended passage for pre-programmed Disklavier and the call of a very different bird: the South American Horned Screamer. Artists: Xenia Pestova, piano & percussion | Kathleen Supové, disklavier Sarah Nicolls, piano | Jose Miguel Fernandez, electronics Timing: 14’24 About Arlene Sierra London-based American composer Arlene Sierra writes music that takes its impetus from rich sources including military strategy and game theory, Darwinian evolution, and the natural world. The Guardian describes her work as “remarkably sure-footed… quirky and individual” and “startlingly fresh and assured”, while Time Out New York describes it as “spry, savage, sly and seductive.” Important commissions include Game of Attrition – New York Philharmonic, Art of War – BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Cicada Shell - Ralph Vaughan Williams Trust, Insects in Amber – Cheltenham Music Festival, Neruda Settings – Tanglewood Music Festival, Hand Mit Ringen – Huddersfield Music Festival, Moler – Seattle Symphony and Urban Birds – PRS New Music Biennial.
