MOSAIC Concert preview

Join the Patagonia Winds and HCC Piano Faculty member Wei-Der Huang for an exciting array of chamber music for winds and piano on Sunday, March 12, 2017 at 4:00 pm in a program titled “Mosaic.”

MOSAIC

Mosaic /mōˈzāik/ (noun):

 1. A picture or pattern produced by arranging together small colored pieces of hard material, such as stone, tile, or glass.

1.1. A colorful and variegated pattern.

1.2. A combination of diverse elements forming a more or less coherent whole.
From late Middle English: from French mosaïque, based on Latin musi(v)um decoration with small square stones, perhaps ultimately from Greek mousa ‘a muse.’ (Oxford dictionary)

Our upcoming concert features a colorful musical mosaic, with varied voices of twentieth century and contemporary composers from György Ligeti, writing in 1953, to Liduino Pitombeira and Eric Ewazen, writing in the 1990s, to Gary Schocker and Dana Wilson, writing in the past few years.

We’re pleased that HCC Piano Faculty member Wei-Der Huang will join the Patagonia Winds for this exciting array of chamber music for winds and piano – we hope you’ll be there, too!
