“E4TT Call For Scores: Solo Piano, Vol. 3” at Community Music Center

Following her wildly successful Call for Scores solo piano and piano four-hands recitals with Ensemble for These Times in their 17th and 18th seasons, E4TT emerita pianist extraordinaire Dale Tsang will return in E4TT’s 19th season to perform fourteen works chosen from the group’s third Call for Scores for solo piano on both sides of the Bay. For this year’s Call for Scores the group received 155 scores from 90 composers hailing from 20 countries (Albania, Argentina, Australia, Austria, China, Cuba, Iran, Italy, Japan, Korea, Lebanon, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Taiwan, United States) and 19 U.S. states, with the composers ranging from students to established composers to professionals in non-musical fields. As ever, the quality and variety of the submissions made choosing the winners challenging.

The fourteen works chosen for performance are: “Cogwork Rhapsody” (2026) by Jinjoo Choi (b. 1994); “Pulse” (2018) by Gilad Cohen (b. 1980); “Seville Rag” (2001) by Michael Coleman (b. 1955); “Album Leaves - III.
