UPCOMING PREMIERES
Five Characters Walk Into a Bar
World Premiere by Sarah Cahill at the Caramoor Festival
A new work for piano inspired by the clandestine activities of the Danish Resistance in World War II,
and the 5-character codes that the resistance used to transmit secret messages. These five characters
(originally letters, represented here by pitches) snake their way through individual bars (measures) in
which they repeat, cycle, and transform, inspired by the resistance's use of encryption, and the
transformation and abstraction of information.
