Simply an event not to be missed: The American premiere of a significant new work by a highly influential composer performed by an mind-melting roster of international musicians. More so than almost any other piece, Naldjorlak demands to be heard live. The resonance, acoustic phenomenon, and truly elastic manipulation of time can only truly be experienced by being in the same physical space as the performers. Naldjorlak is a blissfully sensual portrait of an instrument's sonic personality, played out over three, hauntingly ritualistic movements - the first for solo cello, the second for two basset horns (a close cousin of the bass clarinet), and the third for this trio combined.
