Ko var izdarīt ar četriem leņķiem? Vai tā ir novusa spēle – ar ierobežotu laukumu vai jūra, kas apli savelk leņķos – par asociācijām dzīvē un mūzikā Kultūras rondo studijā saruna ar komponistu Kristu  Auznieku, kura pieckāršā koncerta "Četri leņķi" (Four Angles) pirmatskaņojums gaidāms Ventspils koncertzālē "Latvija" 11. jūnijā. "Stāsts par darbu "Four Angles" sācies jau sen, vēl pirms koncertzāles atvēršanas 2019. gadā. Līdz ar pirmās sezonas plāniem dzima doma arī par jaunas tradīcijas iedibināšanu – ar zināmu regularitāti pasūtināt jaundarbus gan spilgtiem latviešu, gan ievērojamiem ārvalstu komponistiem, kurus Ventspilī pirmatskaņotu starptautiski atzīti, spoži mūziķi. Vēl vairāk – šie jaundarbi saspēlēsies, atsauksies, iemiesos un pārradīs vietējo folkloru, patiesu vai izdomātu. Tā nu pirmais no tiem – "Four Angles" jeb "Četri leņķi" – ir spēle ar pilsētas ielās joprojām dzīvi klīstošo teiksmu par latviešiem tik pazīstamo, bet lielākajai daļai pasaules eksotisko spēli novuss, par tās izcelsmi pirms aptuveni simt gadiem tieši Ventspilī. Arī dzejnieks Semjons Haņins, pats būdams kaislīgs un meistarīgs novusa spēlmanis, skaņdarbam "piesviež" savu pasaku par to, kur un galvenais – kā šis, nu jau par nacionālu kļuvušais, sporta veids radies," norādīja koncertzāles pārstāvji. Krista Auznieka koncerts "Four Angles" rakstīts klavierēm, ērģelēm, vijolei, elektronikai, trompetei un stīgu kamerorķestrim. Pirmatskaņojumā Ventspilī "Four Angles" kopā ar Valsts kamerorķestra "Sinfonietta Rīga" mūziķiem diriģenta Artūra Gaiļa vadībā izpildīs latviešu vijolniece Kristīne Balanas, pianiste Vikija Čova (Vicky Chow) no Ņujorkas, baltkrievu izcelsmes Parīzē dzīvojošā ērģelniece Anna Homeņa (Anna Homenya), amerikāņu mūziķe, komponiste un dziedātāja Kristīna Vīlere (Christina Wheeler) un trompetiste Kristīna Fransone (Kristina Fransson) no Norvēģijas. Koncerta vizuālo noformējumu veido divu latviešu mākslinieču, scenogrāfu tandēms – Monika Pormale un Katrīna Neiburga.

Hear music that begins with classical instruments, like the string quartet, piano, or an orchestra, but which is then augmented, enhanced by electronics, percussion, or preparation. Listen to works by English violinist, pianist, and composer Poppy Ackroyd, Netherlands-based composer Peter Adriaansz, and cinematic music from the augmented string quartet amiina. The versatile Dutch pianist Saskia Lankhoorn plays a specially-prepared piano over a bed of droning sine tones in a work by Seattle-born, Netherlands-based Peter Adriaansz, “Attachments III.” Then, hear music by the Icelandic outfit, amiina, which was once the touring string quartet with Sigur Ros, and has now expanded to include percussion & electronics. From amiina, hear selections from their standalone original live score to the 1913 film Fantômas, that lord of terror, creator of fear, and genius of evil who initially came to live in the crime fictions of French writers. Then, listen to "Rave," music for piano and pre-recorded electronics by Molly Joyce for longtime friend and collaborator, pianist Vicky Chow from her record, Aorta. Also, hear music for percussion and electronics by John Luther Adams, featuring Glenn Kotche, from the long-form work, Ilimaq. Plus, listen to grand music for amplified orchestra by English composer Andrew Poppy from a record released on ZTT Records in the mid-eighties.

A fierce advocate of new music and particularly minimalism, pianist Vicky Chow has been described as “brilliant” (New York Times) and “a monster pianist” (Time Out New York). In Episode 7 of Liquid Music's Playlist podcast, Chow describes the emotional and physical experience of performing minimalist music — from Steve Reich’s Piano Counterpoint to Tristan Perich’s Surface Image, a recently commissioned work that was co-presented by Liquid Music with the Walker Art Center last March. Chow also recommends to us the music of Swiss pianist and composer Nik Bärtsch, whose extended techniques and ritualistic, pattern-heavy structures push our conception of the piano's possibilities and show us minimalism’s groove.

Get deep with Vicky Chow's live performance of Tristan Perich's Surface Image, a 2013 composition for solo piano and 40-­channel 1-­bit electronics. I saw Vicky Chow perform this piece over 40 loudspeakers and a grand piano at The Music Gallery over the weekend and it was trance-inducing.

Q2 Music celebrated the launch of its inaugural podcast, Meet the Composer, on Tuesday, June 24 at 7 pm with a music party and live video webcast in The Greene Space at WQXR.  Hosted by Nadia Sirota, the evening included interviews with all five members of Season One of Meet the Composer, including the two most recent Pulitzer Prize winners, John Luther Adams (2014) and Caroline Shaw (2013), as well as fellow innovators Andrew Norman, Marcos Balter, and Donnacha Dennehy. The concert featured a star-studded array of dynamic, award-winning performers: flutist and International Contemporary Ensemble artistic director Claire Chase performs Balter's Pessoa; Hotel Elefant performs Adams's Red Arc/Blue Veil; Attacca String Quartet performs excerpts from Norman's Peculiar Strokes; Cellist Hannah Collins performs Shaw's in manus tuas; and Bang on a Can All-Star pianist Vicky Chow, cellist Ashley Bathgate and violinist Todd Reynolds perform Dennehy's Bulb. Watch video of the entire show: Q2 Music’s Meet the Composer pays homage to the landmark show of the same name hosted by Tim Page for WNYC in the mid to late '80s. Thanks to New Music USA for their flexibility with the use of the “Meet The Composer” name, which became famous though their legacy organization founded by composer John Duffy.
