Imagining the East

a recital by Adeline Tomasone and

…drawing on the collage concept of "Orientalism," in which impressions and imagined concepts of the Middle East and Far East are employed by composers to create a new sensibility in French music of the early 20th century. Tomasone, Cart, and Witten will perform works in which the images and sounds of the flute and percussion are of paramount significance in this expression.
