Tyshawn Sorey's For Anton Vishio was commissioned by the 92nd Street Y for the McGill/McHale Trio---brothers Anthony and Demarre McGill (clarinet and flute, respectively) and Michael McHale (piano)---who gave the world premiere at the Y on December 19, 2019.

Sorey considers Anton Vishio, his professor at William Paterson University, "a kindred spirit---not only through his curiosity and celebration of new music that was and remains very important to me and my work, but also through his uncanny ability to connect music of the past with what is happening now. He remains a dear friend, and this piece is dedicated to him."

Vishio also introduced the composer to the music of Morton Feldman, a transforming encounter whose mark on Sorey is audible in the slow, soft, meditative dissonances and static textures of the piece: all 18 minutes of this single-movement work are marked ppp, 22-24 BPM, and non vibrato, and while the pulse should be so slow and gentle as to be inaudible to the listener, the score demands absolute precision through complex rhythms.

This performing score is offered for sale by Edition Peters; three copies are required for performance. This product is Printed on Demand and may take several weeks to fulfill. Please order from your favorite retailer.
