MOLLY HERRON – Canon No. 4 for bassoon and tape (2021)
CHARLES SHADLE – Postcards from Native America for wind quintet (2024)
NEW ENGLAND PREMIERE
AMY BEACH – Piano Quintet in F-sharp minor, Op. 67 (1907)

Postcards arrive from near and far, in both time and space, in the second concert of the season. From close by, we hear a “timbral canon” from MIT’s Molly Herron in her Canon No. 4 for bassoon, in which the bassoonist performs to a recording of herself. From the heartland, in its New England premiere, we receive Postcards from Native America for wind quintet, a set of transmissions from five tribal capitals by Choctaw nation member and composer Charles Shadle. From the past, Amy Beach’s luxuriant and brooding Piano Quintet in F-sharp minor, Op. 67, rounds out the program.
