Haven Trio Performs “Twinge” by Jon Magnussen
January 19, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - January 21, 2017 @ 9:30 pm
Haven Trio performs “TWINGE,” by Dr. Jon Magnussen, 15 songs inspired by Barry Bearak’s dramatic 2005 New York Times Magazine cover story, “The Day The Sea Came” (http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/27/magazine/the-day-the-sea-came.html), detailing how six people survived the December 26, 2004 Indonesian tsunami. The songs are being performed for the first time in Hawaiʻi on Jan. 19 at 7:00pm, in the UH West Oʻahu Library, followed by a concert in Hawaiʻi Public Radioʻs intimate Atherton Studio on Jan. 21 at 7:30pm, which will feature live narration by Bearak. The 15-song composition will be performed by the HAVEN Trio, which consists of soprano Lindsay Kesselman, clarinetist Kimberly Cole Luevano, and pianist Midori Koga. After both performances, Magnussen, Bearak, and the members of the HAVEN Trio will hold a talkback session with the audience.
