Sobre el espectáculo

Works by Mason Bates, Huang Ruo and Andrew Norman are featured on this progam of the Boston Modern Orchestra Project under the baton of Gil Rose at Jordan Hall.

Bates's music fuses innovative orchestral writing, imaginative narrative forms, the harmonies of jazz and the rhythms of techno. Huang Ruo's vibrant and inventive musical voice draws equal inspiration from Chinese folk, Western avant‐garde, rock, and jazz to create a seamless, organic integration using a compositional technique he calls “dimensionalism.” A lifelong enthusiast for all things architectural, Andrew Norman writes music that is often inspired by forms he encounters in the visual world. His music draws on an eclectic mix of sounds and usually features some combination of bright colors, propulsive energy, a healthy dose of lyricism, and the fragmentation of musical ideas.

The Boston Modern Orchestra Project is widely recognized as the leading orchestra in the United States dedicated exclusively to performing new music, and its signature record label, BMOP/sound, is the nation’s foremost label launched by an orchestra and solely devoted to new music recordings.
