New Videos - Manoury “Le Livre des Claviers”
The premiere of David Little’s new piece for TCP at Chopin Theatre this week was a huge hit. Here is a brief preview mention in the Chicagoist. Haunt of Last Nightfall is a pleasure to play, and the audience really dug it. We had a great talk back session with David immediately after the performance thanks to a grant from Meet the Composer - Creative Connections. We’ll be posting video and photos of the performance and the talk back in the next few weeks.
In other news, we just received the completed videos from our September performance of Philippe Manoury’s Le Livre des Claviers, an incredible and rarely performed piece that TCP will be recording next month for MODE records. In this performance and on the recording we are joined by Greg Beyer and Ross Karre, both all-stars and a pleasure to work with. Read more about our preparations for the Manoury piece in these previous posts, parts 1, 2, and 3. And check out program notes from that concert here.
Videos for each of the six movements of the piece will be going up on YouTube over the next week or so. Part 1 just went live, click here or you can watch right here on the blog.
