Pianists Sarah Cahill & Regina Myers Presented by New Performance Traditions
Pianist Sarah Cahill, described by NPR Music as “command[ing] a near-godlike status among fans of contemporary classical music,” and pianist Regina Myers, are presented together in concert at the Dresher Ensemble Studio with pianist Regina Myers. Cahill and Myers will perform a concert program of various works for four hands and two pianos, including Van by Hanna Kulenty, Tonk by Billy Strayhorn and Duke Ellington (transcribed by Jed Distler), Sprites in a Large Camphor Tree by Mamoru Fujieda, 3-Day Mix by Eleanor Alberga, Up by Riley Nicholson, and Balinese Ceremonial Music by Colin McPhee. Riley Nicholson will be present at the performance to speak about his work.
Sarah Cahill, hailed as “a sterling pianist and an intrepid illuminator of the classical avant-garde” by The New York Times, has commissioned and premiered over seventy compositions for solo piano. Composers who have dedicated works to Cahill include John Adams, Terry Riley, Frederic Rzewski, Pauline Oliveros, Julia Wolfe, Roscoe Mitchell, Annea Lockwood, and Ingram Marshall. She was named a 2018 Champion of New Music, awarded by the American Composers Forum (ACF).
