Bearthoven and Bent Duo return to Roulette for a performance of two recently commissioned works by Sarah Hennies. Unsettle” (2017, Bent Duo) for piano and percussion and “Spectral Malsconcities” (2018, Bearthoven) for piano, percussion, and double bass are considered sister pieces by the composer, and they feature the patient etherialism and textural ingenuity that have become the hallmarks of Hennies’ remarkable body of work.
The two works featured on this program also comprise “Spectral Malsconcities,” a new collaborative album by Bearthoven, Bent Duo, and Sarah Hennies, which will be released on New World Records in November 2020.
This performance will be presented virtually and available for free on a variety of streaming platforms. Roulette’s theater is currently closed for public performances as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and the safety measures that Roulette has put in place to keep staff, artists, and the public safe.
