The Vienna-based Ensemble Kontrapunkte (Peter Keuschnig, music director) has programmed my composition for woodwind quintet and piano, MR.Z., for its concert on December 2, 2013 at the Musikverein (Glaeserner Saal) in Vienna. The piece was commissioned by the Los Angeles-based chamber music series Chamber Music Palisades and is dedicated to the musical memory of Austrian jazz great Joe Zawinul. Also on the program will be works by Austrian composers Manuela Kerer, Gerhard Schedl, Shih, Norbert Sterk and Judith Unterpertinger.
