PROGRAM

Quintet of the Americas will perform a concert of music that uses a rainbow of colors in sound, taking advantage of the wide variety of tonal colors available with the instruments of the woodwind quintet. Some of the pieces will relate the colorful sounds to colors you can see and hear in the garden.

The Quintet will demonstrate various possibilities used to advantage by many composers. The music will include local composer, James Cohn's "Goldfinch Variations," inspired by the birds he can see and hear in his own back yard in Douglaston. Another feature will be the performance of "Three Colors" by Marcus Redden, a young composer from Virginia who wrote this work to perform on his own college senior recital.

The Quintet will premiere "Milky Way Lovers," a new work by Queens composer Xinyan Li that expresses the story of the creation of two stars. Dr. Xinyan Li has been acclaimed as "a formidable composer" and "a rare and very special talent". Her works have been performed throughout U.S. as well as in France, Norway, Germany and China. Her awards and honors include International Music Prize for Excellence in Composition 2011, ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composer Award, Tsang-Houei Hsu International Music Composition Award, and Libby Larsen Prize from International Alliance of Women in Music. Quintet of the Americas performed her "Mo Suo's Burial Ceremony" at The Music of Now Marathon at Symphony Space,

The Quintet will perform John Steimetz' Quintet, built around the tuning pitch of "A" which takes the listener on a journey from
the Middle Ages to today with references to chant and dances.

Other works on the program will be "Lejano azul" (Distant Blue) by Colombian composer, Luis Calvo, "Mood Indigo" by Duke Ellington.
Oh Boy! by Matt Sullivan, and Edward MacDowell's "To A Wild Rose."
