A new bass clarinet concerto by Mary Kouyoumdjian was boldly performed by Jeff Anderle
Steven Schick came back to the podium in UC San Diego’s Mandeville Auditorium, his first official appearance as Music Director Emeritus. He brought with him Stravinsky’s “Firebird Suite,” which appeared on his first gig as a guest conductor for La Jolla Symphony 17 years ago.
She came back to UCSD for a performance of her work, “Walking with Ghosts,” a de facto bass clarinet concerto. Towards the end, the soloist drops down to its lowest register while the strings move upwards. In the closing bars, waves of shimmering natural string harmonics sweep up and down, similar to the opening section of Stravinsky’s “Firebird.”
The orchestra, conducted by Schick, brought warm life to Kouyoumdjian’s score. Let’s hope we don’t have to wait another 20 years for her to return to San Diego.
