Composer Portraits
PROGRAM Shot in the Dark (2011) – world premiere, Miller Theatre and ICE co-commission Two Miniatures: The Iliad and the Odyssey (2008) Teeter-Totter (2008) Les Guetteurs de Son (1981) Signaux (1978) THIS EVENT HAS ALREADY OCCURED IN A PREVIOUS SEASON! A sometime pupil of Xenakis, though largely self-taught, the music of experimental Greek-born composer Georges Aperghis is often theatrical and always provocative. Prolific, unfailingly inventive, and not easily categorized, he has written for a wide array of instruments and ensembles. The International Contemporary Ensemble gives a tour of his works from the 70s to the present day—from duo to trio to quartet to chamber ensemble—led by conductor Ludovic Morlot, a rising star and former assistant to James Levine, music director of the Metropolitan Opera.
