The programming includes a piece inspired by the Texas freeze, 'What Happens If Pipes Burst?'
Belonging to a conductor-free chamber orchestra keeps her on her toes, says Kinetic Ensemble artistic director and violinist Natalie Lin Douglas, but the payoff is worth it.
Sixteen string players strong, Kinetic will open its eighth season Oct. 9 with “The Wilderness Anthology,” an evening of pieces inspired by nature. Premiered in 1938, Hungarian composer Leo Weiner’s Pastoral, Phantasy et Fugue is something of an outlier: Although Kinetic’s programming leans heavily on contemporary music and living composers, Douglas often plugs in older repertoire to keep the concerts well balanced.
“His argument is that if these ecosystems are destroyed for various reasons, we not only lose the actual physical trees and forests and that sort of thing, but we also lose sound,” says Douglas. “His piece combines some of these sounds that he’s recorded with live performance, so that’s a particularly unique piece.”
