Saturday, November 28
Bertamo Trio
“Endangered Temperaments” Letitia Berlin, Yuko Tanaka, David Morris will perform a program premiering works of Edward Schocker and Dennis Aman. Endangered Temperaments seeks to examine new and old perspectives on a tuning system that is rarely heard in the modern concert setting. Centuries ago, meantone temperament was among the most widely used tuning systems in western art music. Since the advent of equal temperament, however, it is rarely heard in live practice. With this in mind, San Francisco’s Bertamo Trio has created a program based around the temperament that combines Baroque works with two new commissions from local composers Edward Schocker and Dennis Aman. With this program, works from different centuries conceived for the same sound sources will be given a chance to share the same space, breathing new life into this neglected tuning tradition.
