Tree Talk
"The soloists
were flawless."
- William Glackin,
The Sacramento Bee |
Tree Talk, begun by Alice Benjamin and David Granger in 1998, presents music for two bassoons, a combination often overlooked by today's composers and audiences, in a format the instruments so richly deserve - as soloists. Featured on this program will be Bohuslav Martinu's Sextet for piano, flute, oboe, clarinet and two bassoons, Paul Chihara's "Branches" for two bassoons and percussion, and works by Georges Bizet, Alan Hovhaness, and others.
With Ellen Wassermann, piano.
