Three generations, five compositions, one premiere - Callithumpian Consort plays music by Earl Kim, Steve Reich, Matthew Monaco and Paul Fake. Celebrating the centennial of Earl Kim, the Callithumpian Consort is joined by soprano Lucy Fitz Gibbon performing Now and Then and Three Poems in French, subtle and thought-provoking settings of texts by Beckett, Chekhov, Verlaine, Baudelaire and Yeats. Steve Reich creates an extrapolation of the music of Radiohead with his Radio Rewrite, and brand new music by emerging composers Paul Fake and Matthew Monaco brings us right to the present day.
