Jeremy Flower, multi-instrumentalist and composer of acoustic and electronic music, will perform a piece commissioned by Composer-In-Residence Osvaldo Golijov at The Prior on February 27.

Like much of Flower’s work, A Series of Resolutions aims to live outside genre definitions, creating a place where moments of harmonic exploration and dissonance can coexist with earnest melodies. The extended sonic tapestry allowed through live electronic manipulation of the string quartet is mixed with synthesized and sampled sounds which can sometimes leave the listener wondering where a particular sound is originating.

Flower and Golijov have collaborated extensively on film and concert music, most recently the score to Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis, as well as the Grammy-nominated song cycle Ayre (2006) and the double Grammy Award-winning Ainadamar (2007). Flower finds himself at home on a concert stage supporting groups such as the Silkroad Ensemble, or David Krakauer as well as in louder settings with long-time collaborators Carla Kihlstedt, Matthias Bossi, and Jon Evans.
