Three virtuosos perform solo works by major contemporary composers, including a major new piano work inspired by the great paintings of American artist Cy Twombly. Australian composer Liza Lim, known for the visceral energy and vibrant color of her compositions, is winner of Australia’s most prestigious composition prize and recipient of commissions from such ensembles as the Los Angeles Philharmonic and BBC Symphony. Nominated for a 2008 Grammy Award, the brilliant Avery Fisher prize-winning violinist Jennifer Koh and acclaimed Moores School of Music saxophonist Valerie Vidal make their Da Camera debuts.
"Jennifer Koh is a risk-taking, high-octane player of the kind who grabs the listener by the ears and refuses to let go." -- The Strad
"[Marilyn Nonken is] one of the greatest interpreters of new music." -- The American Record Guide
