Christopher Williams presents Newish Music for Bass Alone
Barcelona/ Berlin-based contrabassist and composer Christopher Williams offers a selection of written and improvised delights for solo (and perhaps accompanied) bass: Persephone, a premiere by San Francisco-based composer Erik Ulman after Ezra Pound's Cantos LXXII and LXXIII; #090110, a one-night-only episode of English composer James Saunders' modular metawork #[unassigned]; Song 18, an early and surprising work by Michael Finnissy; and Christian Wolff's now classic For 1, 2 or 3 People.
