Event Detail

Composer Ioannis Mitsialis presents his dissertation recital - Two compositions for solo instruments on Monday, November 22 at 7:00 p.m. in the Conrad Prebys Music Center Experimental Theater. 

"In my dissertation recital tonight, two solo pieces of mine are presented, which were composed under different circumstances and time periods. Fractures and permutations for violin and live electronics and Monodromic for solo piano, both explore in their own way the cyclical phenomena, which constitute the fundamental space of my interest in my most recent work. The violin piece makes use of the electronic medium for the first time in my creative practice and relates to the idea of the cycle more at a conceptual level, while the piano piece connects with it more substantially and develops it in its multiple dimensions. These works are the result of my close collaboration with the wonderful soloists Ilana Waniuk (violin) and Kyle Adam Blair (piano), over a long period of time."
