SUSAN SVRCEK:
EDWARD CANSINO & MAHLER/SCHNITTKE Piano Quartets

Pianist SUSAN SVRCEK
http://pianospheres.org/?page_id=61
is the featured artist on the JUNE 20, 2012 program
performing L.A. Times for solo piano
by the late Los Angeles composer EDWARD CANSINO.

"It has been twenty years since Los Angeles'
Rodney King riot. Was that event the spearhead
for Edward Cansino's L.A. Times? We can't
know for sure, since the piano piece was
composed six years later, in 1998. But Cansino
was a true Angeleno, with a great interest in
the distinct cultures within the city. He was
fascinated by the synthesis of these cultures,
as well as their clashes. And fortunately,
he really loved the piano and its wide range
of colors and clashes!" - Susan Svrcek

SUSAN SVRCEK will be joined by

Jacqueline Suzuki - violin
Adriana Zoppo - viola
Simone Vitucci - violoncello

in performing
GUSTAV MAHLER's
brooding one movement Piano Quartet (1876)
and ALFRED SCHNITTKE's
Piano Quartet (1988),
a fascinating reworking of a fragment
of the unfinished second movement of the
 Piano Quartet left behind by Mahler.
