We bemoan, we dream, we fantasize…
Restless Natures is an ode to how composers perceive the world and the fuzzy ways we preserve these perceptions. Sometimes we contemplate a beautiful subject, as Lili Boulanger passes her eye over a garden in several ways in Trois Morceaux, or Yoshimatsu's memory of a star in ...to a disappeared pleiad. Sometimes music itself becomes the subject: we relive ghosts of hands past in Ge's To a Memory of a Little Grasshopper and Andres's How Can I Live in Your World of Ideas? Muhly's Move shows that even the most intimate conversations between musicians can become a font of inspiration in the way we remember the world. Two world premieres from Peabody colleagues Parks and Shin suspend distance, technologies, and time. - Jonathan Shin (Singapore)"
