Launch Party and Concert: Marcos Balter

Meet the Composer - A podcast by Q2 Music, WQXR

Categories:

Marcos Balter, the subject of Meet the Composer Episode Five, knew it was love at first sight when he heard flutist Claire Chase perform for the first time. This resulted in friendship and collaboration, his piece Pessoa for bass flute and electronics being a result. Hear Chase perform the eerie piece on the stage of The Greene Space for the launch party and hear Nadia Sirota interview Balter about the inspiration for the piece and being labeled as a "Brazilian composer."
