November 1, 2025 at the DiMenna Center, Vienna-based Mivos string quartet joins @ekmeles for the world premiere of Stray Birds by Taylor Brook. (full concert: • Ekmeles - O Maria 11-1-2025 ) Charlotte Mundy, soprano Elisa Sutherland, mezzo Timothy Parsons, countertenor Tomás Cruz, tenor Jeffrey Gavett, baritone and director Steven Hrycelak, bass Olivia De Prato, violin William Overcash, violin Victor Lowrie Tafoya, viola Nathan Watts, cello The premiere of Taylor Brook's Stray Birds, also for string quartet and voices, will mark the composer's eighth work written for Jeffrey Gavett since 2011. Brook's previous works for Gavett have been characterized by an adventurous approach to tuning, and the invention of hypothetical musical traditions. The work, building on 14 years of collaboration, will set pseudo-Proto-Indo-European translations of poems by Rabindranath Tagore, as well as excerpts of Olaf Stapledon's science fiction classic Last and First Men. about Stray Birds: Stray Birds was written in the Fall and Summer of 2025 for Ekmeles vocal ensemble and Mivos quartet. This work sets adapted writings of Olaf Stapledon (1886-1950) and Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941). Stapledon and Tagore were polymaths, pacists, and universalists. I bring them together in celebration of their shared optimism and overlapping philosophies as well as for their contrasting writing styles. Tagore will often represent his ideas through intimate, personal relationships, while Stapledon describes societies and large groups, often never mentioning a single individual. The Stapledon text originates from his 1930 novel, Last and First Men, which explores the possiblities of humanity in the near and distant future, written like an ethnographic report. I set excerpts of a chapter describing an humanity obsessed with sound and music, which shapes religion, social structures, and leads to eventual societal collapse. The Tagore texts are derived from of four poems from his 1916 collection, Stray Birds, which Tagore himself translated from Bengali into English (the original Bengali poems are often quite different and date back to years earlier and come from a variety of sources). These poems I have translated once again from English into pseudoproto-Indo-European, which is a hypothesized language derived from Indo-European languages, a kind of missing linguistic link. By doing so, I am attempting to create a sense of cultural distance, while maintaining some strange familiarity. I conceived of these Tagore sections as the music being created in Stapledon's hypothetical society obsessed with sound. The music alternates between Tagore and Stapledon three times during the piece, and is written in an extended just intonation system the centers on the note D and has 27 notes per octave. One string on each of the string instruments is retuned to t with this harmonic system and bring out the extreme consonance and dissonance that the harmonic system was designed for through the resonance of the instruments.
