WAM-250

collaboration with Canadian Chamber Ensemble

WAM-250 is a contemporary look at Mozart in the 250th anniversary year of his birth. A world premiere by local composer David Wadley begins the program, followed by Peter Hannan’s percussion-heavy deconstructive hommage to Mozart, and Gyorgy Ligeti’s classic chamber concerto. The second half of the concert is Peter Greenaway’s short film “M is for Mozart” scored by Amsterdam’s notorious new music bad-boy Louis Andriessen.

Program:

David Wadley (Canada) New Work (2006 world premiere) for chamber ensemble
Peter Hannan (Canada) WAM (1990) For large ensemble of unspecified instruments including drums
Gyorgy Ligeti (Hungary) Chamber Concerto for 13 Instrumentalists (1970)
