Music from New York brings together spiky, visceral compositions for large ensemble by five modernist masters, performed by UCSD's new music ensemble Palimpsest under the direction of Aleck Karis. Included are Elliott Carter's Luimen, Mario Davidovsky's Cantione Sine Textu, Milton Babbitt's Arie da Capo, Morton Feldman's Between Categories, and Stefan Wolpe's Chamber Piece #2 for 13 players. These large ensemble works are rarely heard in San Diego. Karis, a pianist and music faculty member, has worked extensively with Davidovsky, Babbitt, and Carter, who turns 103 on Dec. 11. The concert also includes the world premiere of a new piece by graduate composition student Paul Hembree. Featured soloists are grad students Pablo Gomez (guitar) and Tiffany DuMouchelle (soprano).
