Musical Reflections
Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Tonight we'll listen to a recent release of British composer Richard Rodney Bennett's "Reflections on a Sixteenth Century Tune," featuring Richard Hickox and the Philharmonia Orchesta. Also, music by Terry Riley with the third movement of his "Requiem for Adam."
Peter Schickele explores the music of Debussy tomorrow at Avery Fisher Hall; we'll do a little exploring of our own with one of the composers less-heard works, the Cello Sonata in D Minor. Later on, we'll offer a selection by violinist Hilary Hahn, who appears with the Orchestra of St. Lukes at Carnegie Hall on Thursday. Rounding out the evening is yet another Cello Sonata, this one by Andre Previn. The composer performs at the piano, joined by cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
