At the concert, Del Sol also performs Riley's The Wheel and Mythic Birds Waltz, and music by Huang Ruo and Stefano Scodanibbio.
The premiere is a celebration of Terry Riley’s 80th birthday. A forefather of minimalism, Riley writes and improvises in a robust, transfixing language. The San Francisco Conservatory of Music recognized Riley's achievements with an honorary doctorate degree during the school's commencement ceremonies in May 2015.
