Radius Ensemble: Revelation

Presented by Radius Ensemble and Longy School of Music of Bard College at Pickman Concert Hall, Longy School of Music (Bard College)

The composer played the piano that night, and the other members of the unusual ensemble were fellow professional musicians and captives. Rising above the horrors of war, this masterpiece is a REVELATION, meditating on goodness, love, and transcending the bounds of earthly time. The world premiere of Boston composer Marti Epstein’s Abîme des oiseaux (Abyss of Birds) for wind sextet responds to, and takes its title from, a movement of Messiaen’s magnum opus. Marti Epstein will be present for the performance.

EPSTEIN – Abîme des oiseaux WORLD PREMIERE
MESSIAEN – Quatuor pour la fin du Temps
