Primavera Italiana: The Spring Festival of Italian New Music 2008
The Istituto Italiano di Cultura celebrates the arrival of spring with the second annual festival dedicated to Italian new music, curated by Luciano Chessa, who teaches at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Primavera Italiana: The Spring Festival of Italian New Music 2008 is produced by the Istituto in collaboration with leading music institutions in the Bay Area, including Old First Concerts and sfSound, and features some of the most prolific and eclectic performers and composers with a striking number of American premieres.
Stefano Scodanibbio: Composer’s Portrait
The Istituto, in collaboration with sfSound, presents, for the first time in the United States, Stefano Scodanibbio in an entire program of his compositions for solos, duos, and ensembles. In addition to a group improv led by Scodanibbio, the concert includes My New Address for solo violin performed by Graeme Jennings, Mas lugares, based on Monteverdi’s madrigals and performed by the string quartet Jennings, Ulman, Rose and Scott, and the American premiere of Labore Navigacionis for two pianos performed by Christopher Jones and Ann Yi. The evening’s program will conclude with the American premiere of And Roll for solo double bass, performed by the composer.
