Details: | TONAL TRANSFORMATION is the final subscription concert for Chicago Sinfonietta’s 2024-25 Season. Maestra Mei-Ann Chen’s program features transformative collaborations of musical styles, instrumentation, and inspiration. North Carolina-based composer, DJ, and educator Brittany J. Green’s music works to facilitate intimate spaces that ignite visceral responses. Her piece In the Beginning serves as an exploration of origins and new beginnings, with "the excitement of new worlds forming, colliding, and shifting into place." Adolphus Hailstork's Concerto for Alto Saxophone and Strings is a dynamic and expressive musical work that showcases the versatility and virtuosity of the saxophone. We conclude our 37th season with Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's formidable Symphony No. 4 , known as his "Fate" symphony. This powerful and emotionally charged masterpiece showcases the composer's ability to convey profound human emotion through music, exploring themes of fate, destiny, and the human struggle against adversity, with moments of soaring beauty set against searing passages of dark brooding.
