Sun Valley’s Mason Bates Commission

Sun Valley Music Festival favorites Time for Three will perform a new concerto written for them by Mason Bates. Titled Silicon Hymnal, Bates describes it as “an electro-acoustic book of songs.” The program opens with Berlioz’s Roman Carnival Overture, an exuberant piece full of dance themes inspired by the composer’s time in Italy and the best themes from his first opera. Alasdair Neale conducts this Aug. 4 program.
