Saxophonist and UC San Diego Professor of Music David Borgo to perform his new album "The Suite of Uncommon Sorrows" on Wednesday, October 6 at 7 p.m. The concert will be livestreamed from the Conrad Prebys Music Center Experimental Theater. Watch livestream: http://music.ucsd.edu/live "The Suite of Uncommon Sorrows" is an eleven-part suite of original music composed in response to the tumultuous events of 2020, including the devastating COVID-19 pandemic, the growing Black Lives Matter movement, and the debilitating polarization of U.S. politics that made it impossible to address either of these adequately. Each movement explores a different “uncommon sorrow,” such as kuebiko (a state of moral exhaustion inspired by acts of horror in the news, which forces you to revise your image of what can happen in this world), kenopsia (the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that’s usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet), chrysalism (an amniotic-like tranquility while a storm rages outside), zenosyne (the sense that time keeps going faster), and pâro (the feeling that no matter what you do it will always be inadequate). PERFORMERS: David Borgo - tenor and soprano saxophones, aerophone Tobin Chodos - piano and keyboard Mackenzie Leighton - acoustic and electric bass Mark Ferber - drum set with special guest: Peter Sprague - electric guitar PROGRAM: Kuebiko a state of moral exhaustion inspired by acts of horror in the news, which forces you to revise your image of what can happen in this world Chrysalism an amniotic-like tranquility, similar to how one feels while wrapped in a blanket sitting inside on the couch while a storm rages outside.
