Eleventh Hour, About Time from DAMAGED GOODS
Edna Rizley Griffin Hall
Fort Collins, CO
Thu, Oct. 23 2008 7:30 PM
Frederic Rzewski Les Moutons de Panurge (1968) 13' 
Kati Agocs Immutable Dreams (2007) for quintet 12'
Thomas Adés Catch (1991) for quartet 10'30" 
Franco Donatoni Arpege (1986) 11'34" 
Stephen Hartke Meanwhile (2007) 18'05" 
Dennis DeSantis Powerless (2001) (select movements tbd)
Roshanne Etezady Damaged Goods (2001) (select movements tbd)

Grammy-winning ensemble eighth blackbird shows off its phenomenal virtuosity and renowned theatrical flair in a compelling, diverse program. In her luminously beautiful Immutable Dreams, young New Yorker Kati Agocs has spun a web of sensuous lyricism that strikingly contrasts with the brilliant textures of Franco Donatoni’s colorful Arpege. Stephen Hartke’s Pulitzer Prize-nominated masterpiece Meanwhile evokes music from an imaginary Asian court with the help of a battery of invented percussion instruments. Thomas Adés depicts a hilarious musical seduction in Catch, while in Les Moutons de Panurge American maverick Fred Rzewski attempts to push the ensemble beyond its limits. Will eighth blackbird be up to his challenge?
