Denman Maroney Quintet: Udentity and other works
Thu Mar 11 – 8:30 PM
The Denman Maroney Quintet comes to Roulette with a performance of Maroney’s extended work Udentity, which was created with support from Chamber Music America’s New Works: Creation and Presentation Program, funded through the generosity of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. Denman Maroney is known for his “hyperpiano” style, which involves playing the keys with one hand and the strings with the other using copper bars, brass bowls and other objects, and his system of temporal harmony, which he uses to compose and improvise in multiple tempos.

Jenny Chai – between-interval – New Piano Music with Moving Paintings
Fri Mar 12 – 8:30 PM
Intervals are not only the physical distances between pitches. What worth contemplating is the different use of intervals by composers: its succession; its variety of intensity; its colors, etc.  Contemporary pianist Jenny Q Chai presents the music of great composers with their unique treatments of intervals, thus showing expression, emotion and even ecstasy. After one follows and explores the depth of intervals, one might discover the final result: between-interval.  Tonight also marks a first time experiment of the collaboration of active music and timeless but moving paintings by artist Relja Penezic.
