Long Distance Call

  • Berkeley Piano Club, 2724 Haste St. Berkeley, CA 94704 (map)


Laura Rose Schwartz
- Parse for Distanced Soprano, Flute, Cello, Piano WORLD PREMIERE

Ryan Suleiman - The Robin for Distanced Soprano, Piccolo, Cello, Piano WORLD PREMIERE

George Lewis - Emergent flute and live electronics

Louise Farrenc - Trio for Flute, Cello and Piano, Op. 45

Responding to the forced separation and longing for connection we all experienced during Covid-19 pandemic, Left Coast Chamber Ensemble commissioned works conceived as long distance conversations between a piano trio and a soprano. Laura Rose Schwartz and Ryan Suleiman each contributed a new piece using a call and response model the singer and ensemble alternate in sending each other musical postcards! It is intended that the work can be successfully performed either together or remotely.

Music by George Lewis and Louise Farrenc completes the program.
