Jessie Montgomery – Starburst
Frank Ticheli – Rest for string orchestra
Composer Jessie Montgomery draws from many diverse influences, such as African-American spirituals, civil rights anthems, modern jazz and film scoring. About Starburst she writes: "This brief one-movement work for string orchestra is a play on imagery of rapidly changing musical colors."
Frank Ticheli's Rest, a piece of fragile beauty and quiet dignity, is an arrangement for string orchestra of Ticheli's moving vocal work, There Will Be Rest, dedicated to the memory of Cole Carsan St. Clair, the son of Carl St. Clair and his wife, Susan.
The broadcast will take place at 7pm Pacific. Available for free streaming from July 16.
