Kurt Rohde’s Farewell Tour – PART 1  
Kurt Rohde, Violist
May 2018

Jared Redmond, piano                                                                                              Kurt Rohde, viola
 Violist and composer Kurt Rohde has commissioned six new pieces, which he will perform in May 2018 in Davis, Sacramento, Berkeley, and San Francisco. This is the first year of a multi-year commissioning project, that is modeled after Cher’s decades long Farewell Tours, Kurt Rohde’s Farewell Tour—Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6—commissions new works by the most gifted composers that Rohde feels are underrepresented and deserve a wider audience, while also broadening the repertoire for viola. The project’s anticipated year of completion is 2028, at which time Mr. Rohde will retirefrom playing in performance and donate his instrument to “some talented whipper-snapper who wants to play viola.”
PROGRAM – World Premiere Performances
Martha Horst, Hammer for viola and piano
Jared Redmond, Tongues of Angels for viola and piano
Carl Schimmel, Contemplation on Vanessa in the Boneset for viola and piano

The wonderful Tuyen Tonnu and Xiaorui Chu will be playing my work Gemini for two pianos in mainland China in 2018. Also will be performing it at the RedNote New Music Festival in March, 2018.  The work is comprised solely of intertwining 5th cycles.  They are working hard to make this piece of music come alive!
