Aurora Borealis performs Three Elegies, March 25, 2007

I was very happy with the excellent performance of Three Elegies as performed by Aurora Borealis, the new music duo comprised of Stephen Solook on percussion and the charming soprano, Tiffany DuMouchelle. You can read more about them at Tonal Center Trio. (That's the website of the trio that includes Adam Berkowitz on clarinet.)

Here's a pic from the concert, which took place in the intimate Goldmark Hall of Mannes College of Music in New York on March 25, 2007.

Three Elegies at Symphony Space

Three Elegies received its second performance on March 9, 2007 at the Thalia at Symphony Space in New York City, in a concert presented by the New York Composers Circle. The performers were Aurora Borealis, the new music duo comprised of soprano Tiffany DuMouchelle and percussionist Stephen Solook. All credit goes to the performers for finding the composition’s themes of loss, meaning, and acceptance.
