The programme begins with a work by the Grammy-winning composer Jessie Montgomery, who hails from New York’s Lower East Side. Renowned for her socially inspired and richly layered music, Starburst, written in 2012 for string orchestra, radiates energy and colour. It clearly portrays the rapid formation of large groups of stars in the galaxy, with its use of gesture and compositional approach.

Westminster Symphony Sundays: Clarinet/Flute Duo

Westminster Village Terre Haute

In 2014, clarinetist Anthony McGill and his brother, flutist Demarre McGill, were featured artists in residence at Bowling Green University. When pianist Michael McHale joined them in concert for the first time, it was immediately clear that the trio would have a great future making music together. This recital includes two of the three wind sonatas that Poulenc composed at the end of his life. Both the flute and clarinet sonatas are full of the composer’s characteristic charm, elegance, and buffoonery. The program also includes a fascinating potpourri of short works for this unusual trio of instruments.
