Vivarium for piano and electronics. Composed by George Hurd. Performed by Elyse Weakley. Premiered at the Center for New Music on March 13th, 2015, as part of the Switchboard Presents Music Series. Read San Francisco Classical Voice's review at http://bit.ly/1IQUzJx

The journey begins with diverse perspectives on mystical music from across the globe. Claude Debussy’s “Sunken Cathedral” is performed in the vast beauty of Saint Joseph’s Cathedral, animated by legendary designer architect Ken Fulks, followed by the traditional Indian “Bho Shambho” on mridangam and flute. Icelandic visionary Johann Johannsson’s “Sálfræðingur” and Mason Bates’ “Tectonic Plates” integrate strings and beats in meditative ways.

Performing original music by San Francisco-based composer George Hurd, The Hurd Ensemble, selected by Kennedy Center Composer-in-Residence Mason Bates, unifies the worlds of electronic and classical music. All the music is written for string quartet (violin, viola, cello, upright bass), piano, and electronics, meticulously bound together with digitally arranged sounds collected from Hurd’s travels.
