This concert will explore the concept of counterpoint through the lens of noted Black composers and their works. While most of the programmed composers use counterpoint to great effect, Juneteenth LP is also intrigued by the interplay of the works programmed in counterpoint to each other.  Whether it is a conversation between Still’s Panamanian Dances and Capers’ Songs of the Seasons or one between the singular haunting beauty of a Duke Ellington arrangement and a micro-quartet by Ogwo, the exchange will be expansive and illuminating. The world premiere of the Piano Quintet by the prolific 20th Century composer Ulysses Kay will anchor this dynamic conversation.
