Sunday, March 6, 2016 at 4:00pm Organist Gail Archer Performs in Oakland First Presbyterian Church of Oakland 2619 Broadway United States 510-444-3555 http://www.firstchurchoakland.org
Tickets: Suggested donation $10 organist Gail Archer
Gail Archer is a Grammy-nominated, international concert organist, recording artist, choral conductor and lecturer. Lucid Culture proclaimed, "Like the composers she chooses, Archer's playing spans the range of human emotions—with Bach, there’s always plenty to communicate, but this time out it was mostly an irresistibly celebratory vibe." Ms. Archer's recordings span the seventeenth to the twenty-first centuries, a festive discography that highlights her musical mastery on grand Romantic instruments as well as Baroque tracker organs. Her most recent compact disc, Bach, the Transcendent Genius, celebrates the brilliant improvisations on Lutheran hymn tunes of the "Great 18" chorale preludes (MM1013). Ms. Archer is college organist at Vassar College, and director of the music program at Barnard College, Columbia University where she conducts the Barnard-Columbia Chorus. She serves as director of the artist and young organ artist recitals at historic Central Synagogue, New York City.

Sunday, March 20, 2016 at 7pm Equinox: light and dark Turner Hall 1040 N 4th St United States 414-271-0711 http://www.presentmusic.org/concerts/equinox.aspx emwoehlke@presentmusic.org
Tickets: 15, 25, 35 Present Music
Last season's Equinox was "aglow with promise" (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel), contrasting light and dark, death and life, and this year is no different as Present Music presents Equinox: light and dark, March 20, 2016. Performing the brooding, atmospheric Night Scenes from the Ospedale by Robert Honstein (written as part of the Vivaldi Project, the goal of which was to weave early and new music together seamlessly) will make an intriguing contrast to Vivaldi’s sunny L’Estro Armonico. Judd Greenstein’s Clearing, Dawn and Dance (“…an epically high flying work reminiscent of Glass's dance and cinema pieces while never abandoning Greenstein's own signature palette of sounds” - wqxr), Andrew Norman’s Music in Circles (a “5 minute static electricity storm” - Pitchfork) and music by Ligeti and Gubaidulina will connect as we cross the divide from winter to spring.

Celebrating its 15th season, the Ensemble for the Romantic Century (ERC) returns to BAM Fisher for six performances of Anna Akhmatova: The Heart is Not Made of Stone.
