Each piece on this concert is tailor-made for the musicians of the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players. The concert features three works commissioned by the ensemble, including two pieces hot off the press by young composers Donnacha Dennehy and Ken Ueno. Ronald Bruce Smith’s work for guitar and electronics was written with the particular abilities of David Tanenbaum in mind. All pieces except for Smith’s will be performed again at the MANCA festival in Nice, France on November 15.
Funded in part by: National Endowment for the Arts; American Composers Forum, San Francisco Bay Area Chapter.
