Composer Portrait of Matthias Pintscher
Miller Theatre at Columbia University
2960 Broadway (at 116th Street)
New York, NY
Still only in his thirties, Matthias Pintscher (b. 1971) has been hailed by leading conductors and critics for his fresh compositional voice and dynamic conducting. The chamber works showcased in this program spring from diverse influences: e. e. cummings's minimalist poetry, Cy Twombly's abstract paintings, and the natural wonder of a total eclipse.
