Cal Performances presents: Eco Ensemble

KAIJA SAARIAHO
Notes on Light
feat. Anssi Karttunen, cello
The Tempest Songbook
feat. Jennifer Zetlan, soprano & Nikolas Nackley, baritone
Sept Papillons

The sensual, expansive soundscapes of revered Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho are the focus of the fall concert by UC Berkeley’s resident new music group. The celebrated ensemble collaborates with Saariaho as part of the composer’s semester-long appointment as a distinguished Bloch Professor in the Department of Music. The program’s centerpiece is a chamber adaptation of her exquisite cello concerto Notes on Light, an exploration of color and timbre that reflects her deep immersion in the world of electronic music.
