Feldman’s Rothko Chapel, in collaboration with Third Angle Ensemble
Saturday, March 10, 2012 7:30 pm
Kridel Grand Ballroom, Portland Art Museum

Resonance Ensemble joins Third Angle Ensemble in this exciting collaboration, which will coincide with Portland Art Museum’s Rothko exhibit.

Composers, deep in thought, constantly interrupted….

The composers of the New York School gave musical voice to the abstract expressionism of Mark Rothko and his contemporaries. Morton Feldman, John Cage, Earle Brown, and Christian Wolff were pioneers of musical time bending and color, laying the groundwork for the subsequent minimalist revolution. Our program features Feldman’s landmark musical composition, Rothko Chapel, with works by his NY School colleagues, given context by the composers in their own words and with their own recorded voices, a conversation in words and music…..

The life and legacy of Portland native Mark Rothko is celebrated with this special performance of Morton Feldman’s modern musical masterpiece.

Tickets available at the Portland Art Museum Box Office: in person or online.

Un Menu Musical, with guest conductor Dr. Bruce Browne
Saturday, June 2, 2012 8:00 pm
Agnes Flanagan Chapel, Lewis & Clark College

Resonance welcomes Dr. Bruce Browne back to Portland to conduct this French musical feast! Because our Artistic Director Katherine FitzGibbon will be away on sabbatical from Lewis & Clark researching German requiems in the Third Reich in Berlin, we have the wonderful opportunity to work with Bruce Browne, retired from Portland State University, Portland Symphonic Choir, and Choral Cross-Ties. Dr. Browne will take us on a musical journey through exceptional French literature, designed to mirror an extravagant multi-course French meal. The main course will consist of movements from Poulenc's anti-war Figure Humaine, Egk's Trois Chansons, and works from Janequin to Ravel, but we promise to have some fun "amuse-bouche" to tickle your musical palate: French folk music, music from Haiti, and even some French chansons by none other than Leonard Bernstein.

Single Tickets available online.

By the end of the concert, we expect that you'll have worked up an appetite, so we invite you to join us for our end-of-season French reception, with French wines, cheeses, and pastries. Tickets are $25 (ages 21 and over only, please). Assurément délicieux!

End-of-Season Reception Tickets available online.
