New Music Inspired By Young Children

TRIO KAVAK

Spurred on by a grant from the Yale School of Music alumniVentures program, a group of distiniguished Yale composer alumni (Carl Schimmel, Orianna Webb, Armando Bayolo, Adam B. Silverman and Daniel Kellogg) undertook a charming and ambitious project to write a series of works inspired by their collective experiences as new parents of young children. The resulting works for flute, viola, and harp, performed by Trio Kavak, not only represent major new additions to this elegant instrumentation, but also reflect an attractive range of stylistic approaches to capturing this seminal life experience in music.+ Trio Kovak is Amelia Lukas, Victor Lowrie, and Kathryn Andrews. An instrumental ensemble established by Debussy’s masterpiece sonata, Kavak explores the contemporary repertoire and new sound possibilities for this highly evocative combination. Comprised of three adventurous and admired young New York talents, Kavak brings together highly refined chamber music performance with a feeling of modern immediacy and relevance.
