Just as a mosaic is generated by combining small pieces of varied materials and colors into a larger image, this recital fuses the unique trio combination of oboe, bassoon, and marimba into a beautiful and moving sonic world. Featuring an arrangement of two movements of Eric Ewazen’s Mosaics alongside a world premiere composition by Carlos Martinez, this recital explores an exquisite instrumental color combination.
