Description

SATORI is a mixed ensemble of winds, strings, and piano, and plays both traditional and contemporary chamber music. The groups repertoire ranges from baroque to 21st century selections, often intertwined in a single performance. SATORIs name is taken from a Zen term suggesting the coming together of separate parts to form a whole---a perfect metaphor for chamber music. This recording celebrates SATORIs Tenth Anniversary season, and the music, excitement, laughter, twists and Turnsthose ten years have brought.

Composer Paul Salerni writes:
Like all good Italians, I love a celebration, so it was with joy and honor that I accepted the commission to write a piece for SATORIs tenth anniversary. The architecture of Turns is simple two lively outer movements in ritornello form surrounding a more gentle, aria-like middle movement clearly and intentionally borrowed from Vivaldis concerti. The title of the piece can be interpreted in numerous ways. I myself was thinking of the traditional chamber music practice of each player in the ensemble taking a turn in the starring role, or the Stravinskian device of starting one musical idea and then taking a turn toward another before finishing the first, or of taking a turn on the dance floor (you will notice that the music often suggests various ethnic dances). But you may have other takes on Turns, none of which I hope will compromise your simple enjoyment of the music and its superb players.
Dr. Salerni is the NEH Distinguished Chair in the Humanities and Professor of Music at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, where he teaches composition and directs a contemporary music ensemble. His music has been performed throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, ands China.
