The Center at West Park (NYC) Presents ENSEMBLE PI: REPARATIONS NOW! A concert honoring Black Lives Matter, Streaming from Thursday, October 29 at 7 p.m.
[…] the Civil Rights Movement, and Black Lives Matter. The music moves into a section expressing the hope and optimism felt by Black Americans but also the looming and inevitable attack from white supremacy. It suggests that history will repeat itself and putting an end to this abuse is a much needed and overdue form of reparations. Conversatión a distancia (2020) by Puerto Rican-born composer/multi-instrumentalist Angélica Negrón is inspired by Conversación, a danza from Puerto Rican composer, Juan Morel Campos (1857-1896).

The soloists on the current album are Bertrand Chamayou, piano; Sandrine Piau, soprano; Anaik Morel, alto; Stanislas de Barbeyrac, tenor; and Florian Sempey, baritone; along with the Accentus choir and Insula Orchestra. Ms. Equilbey's performance may not live up to Beethoven's extraordinary occasion, but it's quite nice in any case. The Insula Orchestra play on period instruments, which is a major plus in terms of my taste, and both pieces of music use a period Pleyel piano from 1892, which Ms. Equilbey says is a good compromise between the […]
