Pierre Boulez • Fold by Fold: the radical who rebuilt the musical world

Boston University School of Music and the Center for New Music present Pierre Boulez at 100 concert featuring Sound Icon. Conducted by Jeffrey Means, the concert will honor Boulez at 100 by highlighting his transformation from radical critic to builder of new stronger communities in the musical world. Over his career, he transformed the ways that new music is written and performed. However, his legacy goes deeper through his building of a new set of institutions and communities to replace those he spent his youth critiquing.

The program will feature a seminal work from his early period, "Le marteau sans maître," and one from his late period, "Dérive 2," performed by Boston’s New Music Sinfonietta Sound Icon conducted by Jeffrey Means.
