D. Riley Nicholson: Influences

Sunday, July 26, 2020 — 2:30 PM
Tickets: Free! (online event)

Composer and pianist D. Riley Nicholson, takes listeners through a program of his past musical influences, culminating in the world premiere of his recent solo piano work, Without. Works to include music by Poulenc, Satie, Meredith Monk, and Hans Otte, each providing an example of musical inventiveness that has inspired Riley’s compositions. Nicholson’s new work, Without, candidly and reverently displays these influences and captures an isolated and dissonant mood also influenced by current events.

A note from the artist:
“This concert looks back at voices that have profoundly shaped my musical voices over time. As I look back on my historical influences, I recognize how overwhelmingly white (and mostly male) they are. While each of these influences are truly beautiful and innovative in their own way, I realize now that the glaring lack of diversity reflects the white supremacist culture we exist in every day. I recognize my lack of awareness of composers of color misrepresents the true musical landscape and does a disservice to my own opportunities for growth. It has been a fruitful moment of reflection weaving together this program of influences – it’s also been an eye-opening call to action, an example that I need to seek out new influences in the future.”
