Pixels, Concertino for piano, marimba, and string ensemble
Composed by Nahre Sol and performed by the composer with the MCO
The composer has provided the following note:
I have been long fascinated with the idea of perspective. We could be looking at the same thing from different angles and lengths of view and what we see dramatically changes from one to the next. This piece reflects these ideas in the form of multiple short movements, each focusing on a different focal length, ranging from what I envision as a “broad aerial view,” to moments where we zoom into the “atoms and molecules” that make up what appears to be very static from far away. The instrumentation is based around piano, marimba, and string ensemble, with miscellaneous percussion instruments that are integrated into the mix. The music bears a mix of neoclassical harmony, minimalism, and improvisatory sections that are influenced by jazz and world music.
