Jack Beal – Double Bass
Adrienne Schoenfeld – Double Bass
UNCUT TERRITORY presented by DUO BEAL/SCHOENFELD is an exploration of the double bass featuring three newly composed pieces by Adrienne Schoenfeld, Jack Beal and Sawyer Adler. The program showcases the versatility of the double bass, delving into the rich sounds and history of the instrument through a dynamic repertoire which spans centuries of musical practice. The duo reimagines folk music as well as canonical standards by Vivaldi and Gliére, presenting historical selections alongside a more modern view of the instrument through the likes of Oliveros’s textual scores and the pieces commissioned for this program. DUO BEAL/SCHOENFELD is a collaboration between Jack Beal and Adrienne Schoenfeld, two composer/performer/improvisors based in Brooklyn.
