"His ensembles speak in visionary tongues." —The New Yorker
"She is a master of expression." —The Village Voice
"All music drama is a kind of betrayal." —Olivier Messiaen

Previte’s young metal-infused electric band the Coalition of the Willing crashes into the mystical voices of the Rose Ensemble in a reimagination of both Guillaume Dufay’s 15th-century choral epic Missa Sancti Jacobi and Olivier Messiaen’s organ masterwork La Nativité du Seigneur. In this critical examination of religion in contemporary society, Hungarian artist Anna Kiraly splashes her eerie animated films across Kleine’s dark story inspired by the dueling desires of conformity and individuality. Marco Benevento, organ (The Benevento/Russo Duo); Reed Mathis, electric guitar (Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey); Bobby Previte (drum legend).

Co-commissioned by the Walker Art Center and Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center (Buffalo, New York) with funds provided by the Jerome Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts, and with support from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's Swing Space Program made possible with lead support from The September 11th Fund and Manhattan Borough President Scott M.Stringer. Underwritten by the American Composers Forum with funds provided by the Jerome Foundation. Supported in part by a grant to Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center from the New York State Music Fund, established by the New York State Attorney General at Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors.

Additional support is provided by the William and Nadine McGuire Commissioning Fund and the National Endowment for the Arts which believes a great nation deserves great art.

The Rose Ensemble's participation in The Separation is sponsored by the American Composers Forum through its Encore Program, supporting repeat performances of new works.
