Looking Forward, Looking Back, Featuring Transient Canvas
Contemporary duo Transient Canvas (Amy Advocat, bass clarinet and Matt Sharrock, marimba) presents Looking Forward, Looking Back, featuring world premieres by Natalia Camargo Duarte, Tyson Davis, and Brian Mark alongside Adam Roberts’s expansive “Nostalgia Variations.”
For over a decade, Boston-based contemporary duo Transient Canvas has been thrilling audiences with their “engaging musicality and easy sense of ensemble” (Cleveland Classical) and “superb” performances (Boston Globe). Bass clarinetist Amy Advocat and marimbist Matt Sharrock relish the creative potential of working with living composers, with the San Francisco Chronicle lauding “the versatile imagination they both display and inspire in others.” With a commissioned repertoire of over 90 works, they have released three albums on New Focus Recordings: Right now, in a second, named a top-10 local album of 2020 by the Boston Globe; Wired, “a must-add to any new music lover’s library” according to I CARE IF YOU LISTEN; and Sift, which KLANG New Music called “one of the more refreshing things I’ve heard in recent years.”
