![Amy Beth Kirsten — World Under Glass No. 1 (2011) [w/ score]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yPAVz-jVDGE/mqdefault.jpg "Amy Beth Kirsten — World Under Glass No. 1 (2011) [w/ score]
This is Amy Beth Kirsten’s imaginative, formidable piece for bassoon quintet (five bassoons), “World Under Glass No. 1,” commissioned and performed by the acclaimed bassoon quintet, Dark in the Song. Called a “bassoon supergroup” by the American Music Center, Dark in the Song was formed in 2010 by five of the most dynamic and accomplished young players and teachers in the U.S. Its members bring an eclectic, wide-ranging mix of sensibilities and experiences to the group.
Kirsten writes in the program notes:
“World Under Glass No. 1 is inspired by the work of New York artist Thomas Doyle (b. 1976). His astonishing scenes-in-miniature are displayed in what might be described as oversized snow globes. Far from beautiful snowscapes recalling holiday cheer, they portray dark, disturbing (even depraved) secret human moments painstakingly arranged and preserved. From afar, the spectator initially delights in these tantalizing objects resembling a holiday toy. Carefree curiosity slowly draws us near. Upon closer inspection, delight turns to sudden horror. This emotional whiplash stunned, horrified, and eventually inspired me. I didn’t know if I should laugh at how I was fooled or cry for the little tragedies under glass that somehow felt even more extreme expressed this way. Viewing Doyle’s work made music sound in my imagination. This is that music.”
