Da Capo Chamber Players is an American contemporary music "Pierrot ensemble," founded in 1970. Winners of the Naumburg Award in 1973, its founding members included composer/pianist Joan Tower, violinist Joel Lester (former dean of Mannes College of Music), and flutist Patricia Spencer. The current members are Curtis Macomber, violin; Jay Campbell, cello; Blair McMillen, piano; Patricia Spencer, flute; and Meighan Stoops, clarinet. Da Capo Chamber Players has commissioned over 100 works from composers such as Joan Tower, John Harbison, Chinary Ung, George Perle, Shulamit Ran, Philip Glass, Mohammed Fairouz, Kyle Gann, Roberto Carnevale, Milton Babbitt, Martin Bresnick, and David Lang among others. In recent years, Da Capo has established active creative relationships with prominent Russian contemporary composers, and the ensemble regularly visits Russia for performances and master classes. Da Capo Chamber Players has been in residence at Bard College since 1982, and starting in the fall of 2006 will be ensemble-in-residence with the new Bard Conservatory. Da Capo has released recordings on labels such as Bridge, New World, CRI, and Innova. ==Recordings== *''Dreamtigers: Chamber Music by Judith Shatin'' (2004) *''Chamber Music of Shulamit Ran'' (1995) *''Joan Tower: Chamber & Solo Works'' (1994) *''Arnold Schoenberg: Pierrot Lunaire'' (1992) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Da Capo Chamber Players」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
