Faculty Composers Concert
May 1 @ 8:00 pm
Free
Our UCLA composition faculty have programmed a wide-ranging concert, featuring Ian Krouse’s Two Sephardic Songs and Two Japanese Songs, Kay Rhie’s Twelve Minutes for Oboe and String Trio, Shahab Paranj’s Diar, Richard Danielpour’s Seven Mysteries, piano pieces by Peter Golub and Noah Meites, and more.
Come waltz to Emily’s and Kaitlin’s performance of Peter Golub’s piece for two pianos, 2 out of 3 for 2 in 3, on the UCLA Faculty Composers Concert 2025.
Program note from the composer:
To translate the title: here are 2 out of 3 pieces (the third is on the way) for 2 pianists; in 3, meaning they all explore different kinds of threes (metrically). The first is a Barcarolle, rolling along and luxuriating in the sound of the 2 pianos. Halfway through there appears a familiar theme from a famous Barcarolle that wafts in and out. The second piece is a collection of waltzes, with much appreciated help from Shostakovich. The third will be a barbaric, relentless and possibly nauseating 6/8.
I’m grateful for Kaitlin and Emily for their musicianship and pianism and look forward to the upcoming record. ~ Peter Golub, UCLA Lecturer of Music and Film Composition
