"In this time of international strife, I felt that the most appropriate centerpiece of this concert should be the gripping chamber work- Earl Kim's Now and Then- written in response to his having flown as an American airman over Nagasaki right after the atomic bomb fell. Mr. Kim waited quite a few years to let this work rise within him, bringing the texts of Samuel Beckett and William Butler Yeats to full haunting impact. Other works on the program by Ravel and Poulenc will complement and contrast with this work, utilizing the beautiful sonorities of the chamber ensemble and piano." D'Anna Fortunato
