Living in Color

Inspired by the irresistible fun of I prefer living in color, Sarah Gibson’s 2019 Left Coast Composition Competition winning work for percussion and ensemble, this program celebrates composers particularly adept at exploiting instruments’ timbral possibilities—from Errolyn Waller’s stormy characters in Dervish and Gabriel Fauré’s dreamy landscapes in the Op. 120 Piano Trio, to the evocative sounds of myths conjured by Karol Szymanowski.
