E Pluribus Unum
by Geneva Music Festival Artists-in-Residence
Returning Artists-in-Residence perform music born of revolution, exile, and perseverance. The five composers featured crossed oceans, from Cuba to China to Russia to Hungary, carrying nothing but their music to become American voices.
About the concert
They came by steamship and airplane, carrying nothing but their music. Tania León fled Cuba in 1967. Bright Sheng survived China’s Cultural Revolution. Rachmaninoff, Auerbach, and Dohnányi each escaped a collapsing world for American shores. Tonight, our Artists-in-Residence perform works by five immigrant composers whose music shaped this country. This is America’s story, told in sound.
Tania León: Elegia a Paul Robeson
Bright Sheng: Four Movements for Piano Trio
Rachmaninoff: Trio élégiaque No. 1
–Intermission–
Lera Auerbach: String Quartet No. 10 “Frozen Dreams”
Dohnányi: Piano Quintet No. 1 in C minor
