The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Centre Pompidou de Paris, and the Ensemble Sospeso present this American visit of
Marc-André
Dalbavie, one of the most brilliant young European composers, to hear American premieres of several of his ground-breaking works. Dalbavie’s luminous and tactile music explores timbre and color, drawing on the French spectral school, but also reinterpreting the post-serial music of
Boulez and the New York minimalism of
Steve Reich and Morton Feldman. Sospeso will also present a rare performance of a recent and beautiful work by
Pierre Boulez,
Anthèmes. This concert is part of the international Guggenheim / Beaubourg exhibit at the Guggenheim Uptown and Guggenheim Soho Museums in New York, from October 1998 to January 1999. This concert is supported in part by the Guggenheim Museum, the Centre Pompidou, the French Embassy’s Cultural Services, and Columbia University.
