Trevor Weston: Juba • Kaleidoscope Chamber Orchestra
Program notes from Trevor Weston:
Juba for String Quartet honors the lives and contributions of African and African American forced laborers who cultivated various crops during slavery. The work makes a musical journey from Africa to the United States through traditional African music and traditional folk music by African Americans: fiddle music, Long-meter hymns and Gullah music. The physical contributions by the aforementioned laborers are often forgotten. Similarly, the musical contributions of African Americans are often unmarked and forgotten although the world enjoys these contributions daily. Juba for String Quartet employs traditional performance practices from the African American Musical tradition. Some of these musical gestures might sound familiar although they are not always associated with the Black community. This work highlights the musical contributions by African Americans and celebrates the lives of those who helped create our American economy, industry, and culture.
Recorded June 26, 2023, Zipper Hall at The Colburn School
Violin I: Jae Cosmos Lee
Violin II: Emilie-Anne Gendron
Viola: Luis Eduardo Bellorín
Cello: Juliette Herlin

Eric Nathan: Omaggio a Gesualdo • Kaleidoscope Chamber Orchestra
zhlédnutí 123Před měsícem
Program notes from Eric Nathan: "Omaggio a Gesualdo" (2013) is inspired by Gesualdo's madrigal "Ahi, disperata vita" from Madrigali a cinque voci Libro terzo (1594). It uses Gesualdo's work as a model, recasting his gestures and musical motives in my own language, while loosely adhering to the form of his work. I have long been an admirer of Gesualdo's music, especially his use of harmony and j...

Program notes from Jennifer Higdon: Can music reflect colors and can colors be reflected in music? I have always been fascinated with the connection between painting and music. In my composing, I often picture colors as if I were spreading them on a canvas, except I do so with melodies, harmonies and through the instruments themselves. The colors that I have chosen in both of the movement title...

Program notes by Roger Zare: M.C. Escher's mind-bending artwork has always fascinated me.When I was young, I was briefly obsessed with tessellations after first learning about Escher, and today I find a strong inclination towards writing music about both symmetry and surrealism. Escher Triptych is a work focused on both broad and specific symmetries, and its sound world is characterized by exte...

Program notes from Marcus Norris: This piece comes from a conversation about the cyclical nature of unhealthy relationships in life, specifically in Black American families.

We imagine, if we could know our li...

Someone stole a violin!
So cool to see my former student in the cello section! And I get to play this piece on Aug. 24th!
5:10
Sehr schön! Angenehmes, schwingendes Tempo. Ganz vielen Dank, dass Ihr das Video hochgeladen habt!
Fabulous sounds - but there's something fishy about 2 players in back row. I think they are only joining in for the easy bits.
Cutie spotted
Whatever this is trying to be, it is 50 years too late. I remember witnessing this sort of tripe when I was a student and I am now 75. Much well crafted and daring music is to be had but Ms Smith might want to consider a different field of employment.
Thanks for your opinion, it’s interesting how music connects with people in different ways. We very much enjoyed collaborating with Gabriella and premiering this work, which was very well received by our audience.
Well done. I enjoyed it. A bass line playing throughout resonates with me.
Heavenly Corpolation!!
Fascinating to see how the harpsichord rushed the tempo at one point but then u saw her looking closely at the violin guy and then they were dead on. The brain is incredible
The harpsichord in this is so clear and it’s just so good to hear it loud and proud in this beautiful piece
It absolutely boggles my mind thinking that this incredibly beautiful music was written by one man, one genius. ❤
I loved it!
Beautiful and moving - bravo, Kyle!
Gorgeous music and playing!! Congrats to everyone involved.
Todo dia é dia de Bach .
Bach still rockin' in 2024
Incredible!! ❤
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful performance. Good video quality too!!
Musicians are Superior. Bach brought to Life. Balanced Superbly. Does anyone know who these Brilliant Musicians can be found. We would love to Donate. Thank you.
Thanks very much! We have a roster of the performers and a link to donate in the video description.
6 jóias musicais. Qual deles é melhor. A resposta é: todos..❤❤❤❤
Fantastic!
Thanks for your work. It is an interesting piece.
Nice. But I prefer the more rythmical swinging, adventurousplayful and lively performance of Musica Antiqua Köln. Here again the too polished, distinguised and classical approach.
Fantastic performance of the 5th symphonic . Kaleidoscope,Bravo!!!!
Wow. This work is the most refreshingly intelligent, curiously lyrical, quixotically riveting new art I have encountered since I heard Khachaturian's Piano Concerto, with a theremin in the second movement, in 1973. No kidding! In its retention of tonal expectations by new means, it reminds me of "Albion" by Thomas Ades.

Mesmerizingly beautiful. Ms. Valdés is absolutely radiant
Yes, I can certainly hear more detail. And a slightly slower pace. Yet the piece still flys quickly in all directions, but then returns to a singular voice. Tremendous! 🇮🇱✡️✝️🇨🇦🇻🇦💪🌪️⚡⚔️🔥🙏👃😘🏴
I can hear the harpsichord so clearly. In the VM I can't but really like them both. Thank you. 🇮🇱✡️🇮🇱✡️✝️🇨🇦🇻🇦
Don't we all need some syncopated harp and percussive instruments in our lives? 😃 For all you music majors, is there a name for this? Jazz percussion or percussive jazz? . . . In any case, it is refreshing. Instead of the focus being on pretty, melodic voices, the focus is on a variety of unique sounds with syncopated, unusual tempos. . . . Have you ever heard recordings or seen video of the deep jungle or rainforest? This video reminds me of that. There are all kinds of unique, interesting sounds and we are uncertain as to what is making them. The brain tries to sort out the sounds. Is there a rattle of a snake, growl of a tiger, a cascade of water, buzz of an insect, roar of a lion? . . . So there is that. Plus, for a period of time, it sounded like a conversation between two or more beings or creatures or aliens. I can't speak for anyone else, but I can for myself: it's good! I like it. 👏👏👏👏
So glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
@@kramermilan, keep on rockin,' man. 🥂
Typically I pass on these instruments, but, on a whim, I gave it a listen, and I am glad that I did. It is refreshingly unique. I'm still figuring out why I like it, but I know that I do. Thank you for your work, your art, your originality.

This is brilliant
Thank you, thank you, Kaleidoscope Chamber Orchestra, thank you!!! Your rendition is very, very beautiful. I've heard many interpretations and have about a dozen in my modest home collection, including world top known performers. I have nothing but praise and admiration for you. And you have a new subscriber.
Thank you very much!

Such a beautiful piece ❤ Well played!
Outstanding performance coming from the entire ensemble. Virtuosity and artistry coming out of every single performer !! The sound quality is clean, and proportions between sections and instruments very well balanced ! Bravo !! One of the best performances around uploaded for listening.
Thanks very much!
Transcending rendition of Brandi #3. Absolutely mesmerizing!
Bravo, Very well played!!
This, is why I despise rap !
Made my day! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Never heard the work before. Seemed pretty avante garde in some ways. Quite interesting, and clearly took a lot of skill to play. Well done.
Thanks for listening
I am in sheer delight. My favorite concerto. Beautifully performed! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Thanks for listening!
Tempo of the 3rd movement is absoulely perfect - I hear so many recorded versions where it is hyper-fast, rushed, and the beauty of the separate voices is lost. Well done, excellent performance!
This piece feels like the Baroque got into a fight with CBGB-NYC style Hardcore and won. And it is equally matched in its execution, too. I love it!!!
So glad you enjoyed it!
この演奏では、チェンバロの音がよく聞こえて良いな!!
ヨハン-セバスティアン-バッハの曲の中で、ブランデンブルク協奏曲は1番好きな曲だ!!
As a violist this makes me very happy :)
Bravo! an amazing work accompanied by an oustanding execution!
Thank you very much!
