I came to
discover what
young Americans
had in them and
to help them
express it.
~Dvo
ák,
on coming
to America
We invite you to an evening you can only get here
--
a concert
featuring
Festival Mozaic Music Director Scott Yoo's
favorite chamber works to play, with some of the best of
America's young generation of chamber musicians.
In 1892, Dvo
ák was invited to direct a newly-established
National Conservatory in New York, founded with the help of the Carnegies and
Vanderbilts. Though the Conservatory sadly did not survive the Great Depression,
Dvo
ák's immense love for American musical idioms resulted in this beautiful work
composed in the American heartland.
Young American composer Patrick Zimmerli draws on another indigenous American
music
--
jazz. This trio, premiered and recorded by Scott Yoo and John Novacek, is a
Brahmsian sweep using jazz tonalities.
Generously sponsored by Arthur Z. Rosen.
Music Director Scott Yoo
