2026/S1 Elder Conservatorium Lunchtime Concert | Contemporary Winds
Elder Conservatorium Wind Orchestra
Colin Prichard - conductor
Thomas Godwin - New Work
Viet Cuong - Re(new)al
Michael Gandolfi - Flourishes and Meditations on a Renaissance Theme
Join the Elder Conservatorium Wind Orchestra for three contemporary works that explore texture, rhythm, and inventive musical landscapes. The program begins with a new work by Thomas Godwin, a talented composition student at the Elder Conservatorium. Godwin’s new work brings a fresh voice to the stage, alongside other contemporary composers. Viet Cuong’s Re(new)al draws inspiration from the constant advancement in renewable technologies aiming to create a better reality for all. A concerto for percussion quartet, the soloists perform on ‘found’ items, such as crystal glasses and compressed air cans. Michael Gandolfi’s work offers a reflective counterpoint, transforming an anonymous Renaissance theme known as Spagnoletta into seven starkly different variations. Together, these works showcase the diversity of music in the contemporary landscape.
