The New Music Concerts Ensemble, under the artistic direction of Robert Aitken is presenting a concert on Sunday April 30, featuring music by (with one exception) young Baltic composers. Estonia is represented by Helena Tulve, whose 2002 composition
lumineux/opaque for violin, cello, piano and percussion will be performed.
The works of three Lithuanians - Raminta Serksnyte (also the guest curator of the concert), Mikolajus Konstantinas Ciurlonis and Algirdas Martinaitis - and Latvia’s Andris Dzenitis round out the programme. Ciurlonis, who lived from 1875 to 1911, is the exception in the focus on youth.
Featured are Fujiko Imajishi, violin and mezzo-soprano Patricia Green.
The 8 PM concert is being advertised as Baltic Currents and will take place at the Glenn Gould Studio, 250 Front St. West. Box Office 416 205-5555.
