Prelúdio 21 and Composer's Voice easily banished thoughts of snowy banks, frigid winds, and a winter storm named after an animated fish. They successfully conspired to warm up New York with a concert featuring contemporary composers from Brazil. You may know this steamy, South American country as the land of Samba, small swimsuits, and superstar fútbol players, but did you know it possesses a thriving cultural scene? Prelúdio 21 stands at the forefront this rich artistry. Founded in 1998 by seven composers, Prelúdio 21 operates as an influential contemporary music group in Brazil. It's a treat to witness the passion and intrepid dedication these talented composers bring to their craft.
The choice to use wind instruments—flute, clarinet, and bassoon—does much to elicit the spirit of Brazil. The tone/color created by these instruments evokes Brazil's varied and colorful topography, which encompasses scenic beaches frequented by the glitterati and rain forests populated by rascally monkeys and cheery toucans.
Fifteen Minutes of Fame, showcasing the talents of flutist Maria Carolina Cavalcanti, highlights the multi-faceted impressions Brazil imprints on composers from around the world. David Drexler’s Ecoando do Uirapuru, features ambrosial rhythms that intimate the flair of bossa nova. Nocturne, composed by Dominic Blake, alternates between major and minor keys, which conjures up the image of two lovers embracing and recanting in the sultry heat. David Rhoades crafts a compelling thesis of cultural potency in his piece Shot. Frothing with vigor, Shot functions as a musical liqueur that delights with its concentrated effervescence. Before Corcovado, fashioned by Robert Voisey, avidly conveys feelings of anticipation experienced by pious travelers willing to ascend great heights by way of rail, road, and foot to pay their respects to the mammoth Christ the Redeemer statue. The closing piece, Oliver Cameron’s Macaco Atrevido—literally translated as cheeky monkey—brings to mind an impish primate gamboling and amusing with antics; it also demonstrate Cavalcanti’s gifts for musical gymnastics.
Works by the six current members of Prelúdio 21 fill the balance of the program. Two favorites that catch your ear are Hidden Cities, formed by composer Caio Senna, and Sergio Roberto de Oliverira’s Praça XV.
The duet of Kirsten Economy on flute and Elisabeth Romano on bassoon perform Hidden Cities. The piece opens with an irresistible and hummable melody that encapsulates a certain rhythmical pensiveness inherent in the daily routines of a city. Although intertwined at the beginning, the flute and bassoon eventually branch into their own musical journey peppered with snippets of the original theme. Hidden Cities hints at the life that bubbles beneath the busy, urban surface: Vendors hawk, friends bicker, couples amble hand in hand, and parents affectionately squeeze their children as everyone pounds the grid pavement in their pursuit of dreams, which can only come true in the metropolis.
Bella Winds—a thoughtful trio comprised of Kirsten Economy, Elisabeth Romano, and clarinetist Rachel Grasso—closes the program with the spectral Praça XV. Half a dozen or so prolonged, penetrating wails punctuated with eerie silences open the piece before the first glimmers of an unearthly melody appear. Praça XV then makes a hard left turn, becoming a dissonant stew of rhythmical capers interspersed with forays recalling the initial shrill squalls. It jars and jangles your nerves in the best way possible.
Works by accomplished composers Murray Gross, Aurelio Scotto, Robert Reinhart, Brian Belet, Douglas DaSilva, Richard Pressley, Roger Blanc, Kezia S. Yap, Erik Branch, and Vincent Euliana fulfill a pleasurable Fifteen Minutes of Fame. Engaging compositions by Prelúdio 21 composers Marcos Lucas, Alexandre Schubert, J. Orlando Alves, and NederNassaro also appear on the program.

Concert audiences today are little impressed by conductors who merely wave their batons at orchestras while providing the occasional showboating gesticulation. Raised on entertainment that favors short attention spans, these paying spectators demand instant gratification. That’s why the Dinklaker School of Accessory Conducting includes entertainment-oriented courses in its curricula. Legerdemain, ballroom dance, calf roping, hand shadows, ventriloquism, synchronized pie throwing – Dinklaker features them all, and more. Here, Maestro Eugene Pringler multitasks his way through the first movement of Saint-Saëns’ “Carnival of the Animals” by conducting, juggling hats, and playing the viola line on a kazoo. He’s about to turn around and add the thrilling lion taming component to his performance. Alas, he’ll be just a split second too late.
