Thomas C. Duffy, Music Director. Featuring:

• “A Child’s Garden of Dreams” by David Maslanka is
a deeply rich piece, written as a meditation on the vivid dream images of a
dying girl. It is accompanied by projections of the pastel drawings the
composer made with his left hand while wrestling with the act of composing the
piece.

• “Trains of Thought” by
Alex Shapiro. The electronically reproduced sounds of the chords and rhythms of
a high-speed train in motion weave in and out of the musical texture provided
by the band.

• “Russian Christmas Music by Alfred Reed was commissioned in 1944 as a
tribute to the friendship between the Russian and American allies in WWII. It celebrates
the common bonds between peoples, which sustain regardless of political
divisions and governmental disagreements.

• “Duplicity” by Yale
College sophomore Rory Bricca represents the dance between honesty and
deception that plays out subconsciously in our minds. Tonight’s performance is
the world premiere.
