    PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA MASON BATES Born 23 January 1977 in Philadelphia. Rusty Air in Carolina (2006) PREMIERE OF WORK: Winston-Salem, North Carolina, 20 May 2006; Stevens Center; Winston-Salem Symphony; Robert Moody, conductor THESE PERFORMANCES MARK THE PSO PREMIERE APPROXIMATE DURATION: 14 minutes INSTRUMENTATION: piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, English horn, two clarinets, bass clarinet, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, harp, piano and strings. Mason Bates brings not only his own fresh talent to the concert hall but also the musical sensibilities of a new generation — he is equally at home composing “for Lincoln Center,” according to his web site (www.masonbates.com), as being the “electronica artist Masonic® who moved to the San Francisco Bay Area from New York City, where he was a lounge DJ at such venues as The Frying Pan — the floating rave ship docked off the pier near West 22nd Street.” Bates was born in Philadelphia in 1977 and started studying piano with Hope Armstrong Erb at his childhood home in Richmond, Virginia. He earned degrees in both English literature and music composition in the joint program of Columbia University and the Juilliard School, where his composition teachers included John Corigliano, David Del Tredici and Samuel Adler, and received his doctorate in composition from the University of California, Berkeley in 2008 as a student of Edmund Campion and Jorge Lidermann. Bates was Resident Composer with the California Symphony from 2008 to 2011, Project San Francisco Artist-in-Residence with the San Francisco Symphony in 2011-2012, and Composer of the Year with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra in 2012-2013; he began a continuing residency with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in September 2010.

  • Bates, Clyne Bringing Fresh Vibe to CSO's New Music Series by JOHN VON RHEIN
    MASON BATES Critical acclaim for artist "Be it mixing trip-hop and funk at a club or writing a symphonic or chamber work, composer Mason Bates is getting noticed for his straddling of classical music and electronica. ... Young, Juilliard-trained and already celebrated, he's become a fixture not only in concert halls but in the world of electronica as well. At a time when symphony orchestras nationwide are trolling for audience magnets - the type of new material that can lure members of generations X and Y along with older subscribers - Bates just might have that bait." Los Angeles Times, "Concerto for Two Universes," by Donna Perlmutter "Mason Bates, 30 years old...knows how to command an orchestra just as well as he does his touchpad. Bates's Liquid Interface, a National Symphony commission that received its world premiere last night, surpassed in sheer sonic beauty even the works by Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky that rounded out the program." The Washington Post, Andrew Lindemann Malone "The Juilliard School, in its annual Focus! Festival, presented six evenings of works written in 2005, including ... Mason Bates' Digital Loom, for organ and electronics, which transformed the hall into something between a decaying cathedral and an East Berlin club." The New Yorker, Alex Ross "Morgan led the world premiere of Icarian Rhapsody, an appealingly crafted work for strings by Oakland composer Mason Bates ... lovely to hear and ingeniously constructed..."
