THE LAST PARADISE on March 29th takes its title from China's Xiaogang Ye featuring Stephen Sitarski as soloist.

Program:

Color - Marc-Andre Dalbavie

Stab at Matter - Andrew Staniland

Resonance Unfolding 2 - Scott Good

The Last Paradise - Xiaogang Ye

Alex Pauk, conductor

Stephen Sitarski, violin

The Chinese countryside and ethnic elements surface and Xiaogang Ye's musical images of paradise. Staniland, thinking Large Hadron Collider particle accelerator, smashes musical protons at the speed of light to enjoy the collisions and resulting fallouts. Good explores and extends the realm of spectral techniques, while Dalbavie immerses the listener in a spatial sensation of continuous transformation.
