Information

Program

Charles Ives: Three Quarter-Tone Pieces for two pianos

Arnold Schoenberg: Drei Klavierstücke, Op. 11

Hanns Eisler: Three Songs from Hollywood Elegies

John Corigliano: Chiaroscuro

Chinary Ung: Seven Mirrors

Clarence Barlow: For Loise

Vicky Ray and Aron Kallay say this about the program: The Schoenberg, Eisler and Ung were written by ex-pats who came to the US during times of great crisis in their home countries. We picked the Ives and Corigliano for their rich harmonies and intriguing textures - to show off the new piano! The Barlow and Eisler are also great fun and add a certain wry humor to the evening…!
