Jennifer Koh, violin; Davóne Tines, bass-baritone; Camilla Hoitenga, flute; Aaron Wunsch, piano; Jean-Baptiste Barrière, electronics. Program J. S. Bach Violin Sonata in G Minor, BWV 1001 J. S. Bach Quia fecit mihi magna from Magnificat, BWV 243 J. S. Bach Flute Partita in A Minor, BWV 1013 Saariaho NoaNoa for flute and electronics Barrière Palimpsest Capriccio for violin and electronics Saariaho Tocar for violin and piano Saariaho Changing Light for baritone and bass flute Barrière Crossing the Blind Forest for flute and electronics Barrière Suite from The 38th Parallel About the Program A program of entrancing, mystical music that envelops the listener in sound. Kaija Saariaho’s fluid, beguiling works (such as L’amour de Loin, a critical and popular success at the Met in 2016); Jean-Baptiste Barrière’s works intermingle acoustic and electronic sounds to build new sonic landscapes, The 38th Parallel, a tale of Korean displacement and immigration and so on. Charismatic violinist Jennifer Koh (“one of our most thoughtful and intense musicians,” N Y Times), bass-baritone Davóne Tines (“immense power and fervor,” L A Times), and flutist Camilla Hoitenga (“explosive,” New York Times) perform in what promises to be an immersive musical experience.
