Harold Meltzer has been described as a composer of “scrupulous craft and exceptional freshness”, his style featuring “brightly contrasted colors that simultaneously aren’t flashy”. He has written for intimate chamber ensembles and full orchestra, and for everything in between, often scoring for unusual combinations of instruments. Brion (2008) for flute, oboe, guitar, mandolin, violin, and cello, earned him a nomination as a Pulitzer Prize finalist, one of many honors.
With soprano Elizabeth Farnum, members of Cygnus – Calvin Wiersma, violin; Susannah Chapman, cello; and Oren Fader and William Anderson, guitars – and pianists Margaret Kampeier and Joan Forsyth. The program includes the world premiere of Doria Pamphili, for solo guitar.
