Performances

An encore performance of Tyshawn Sorey's arrangements of music associated with Josephine Baker, featuring soprano Julia Bullock, at UC Berkeley's Zellerbach Playhouse.

Several concerts including the premiere of Tyshawn Sorey's arrangement of songs associated with Josephine Baker for voice, guitar, flute, bassoon, sax, piano and drums, Carla Kihlstedt's genre straddling At Night We Walk in Circles and Are Consumed by Fire, a program of Saariaho chamber works, and an early morning, mountainside performance of text based scores by Pauline Oliveros.

Returning to the Aspekte Festival in Salzburg, ICE teams with Ensemble Itineraire for a unique collaboration. Featuring a program of pieces that continues and responds to European musical traditions, ICE performs a new piece by Lu Wang (commissioned by ICE), as well as works by Steve Lehman, Anthony Cheung and Tristan Murail. Ensemble Itineraire will join ICE for a new piece written for both ensembles by Christopher Trapani, the recent winner of the 2016 Rome Prize.

"Untempered" explores music by composers who play in the nooks and crannies of musical tuning systems. Integrating phenomenon such as beatings and pitch discrepancies inherent in instrument design, composers Larry Polansky, Peter Adriaansz, and Karola Obermueller pose an outsider lineage in modern composition, opening our awareness of the acoustic realities and necessities of music.
