Edison Denisov’s Sonata for flute and piano daringly synthesizes the styles of several composers censored by the Soviet Union, while Charles Koechlin develops a similarly polystylistic approach by freely drawing upon music from every era dating back to the middle ages. Claude Debussy explores taboo subjects of lesbian sexuality through the lens of an ancient Greek courtesan’s poetry, while Salvatore Sciarrino quotes another of Debussy’s sensual masterpieces. The remaining composers all escape into the world of birds. Kaija Saariaho instructs the flutist to recite a poem about birds while depicting through solo flute melodies the shape their flight makes in the air. Olivier Messiaen quotes actual birdsong, while Tristan Murail, drawing inspiration from Messiaen’s aesthetic, offers a newer spectral approach to the birdsong genre.Program: Claude Debussy – Selections from BilitisEdison Denisov – Sonata for flute and pianoCharles Koechlin – Sonata for flute and piano, Op. 52Olivier Messiaen – Le Merle Noir and Petite EsquissesTristan Murail – Le fou à pattes bleuesKaija Saariaho – Laconsime de l’aileSalvatore Sciarrino – d’un faunePerformers: <a href="https://www.shannagutierrez.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">SHANNA PRANAITIS GUTIERREZ</a> (flute)<a href="https://www.classicalkeys.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ANDREW ROSENBLUM</a> (piano)
