San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra
Mark Alburger, Music Director
Ever have a tune you couldn’t get out of your head? aThe composers of the San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra find themselves returning to Ernesto de Curtis’s Return to Sorrento (1902) in Return to Return to Sorrento, evoking a sunny, post-El-Nino world of musical fact and fantasy from John Bilotta, Philip Freihofner, David Graves, Loren Jones, Phil Lockwood, Lisa Scola Prosek, Kit Ruscoe, Martha Stoddard, Davide Verotta, Erling Wold, and Mark Alburger. Also featured are Bilotta’s back-to-the-future Quantum Mechanic (semi-staged in co-operation with Goat Hall Productions / San Francisco Cabaret Opera); David Graves’s relatedly-apocalyptic Tickertape; Philip Freihofner and Phil Lockwood’s evocative Blade of Grass; Martha Stoddard’s enchanting Duo Concertante for Flute, Marimba, and Chamber Orchestra (featuring Bruce Salvisberg and Anne Szalba); Jones’s adventurous Lost Plateau; and Alburger’s frenetic-erotic-violent Salome Suite.
