Etude Quasi Cadenza; Fantasy; Open and Shut; Eine Kleine Snailmusik; Beast; Trout Surviving; and Api Old First happily presents a concert devoted to the compositions of Elinor Armer, a prodigious creative presence on the local musical scene for thirty-seven years as a composer, performer, and teacher. Throughout a career whose highlights range from chairing the S.F. Conservatory’s Composition Department to a musical collaboration with the eminent sci-fi/fantasy author Ursula Le Guin, her work has been synonymous with music that is lively yet thoughtful, playful yet meaningful, and always original and memorable.
