New works written on commission by Mizzou student composers for premiere at the Sheldon Concert Hall in St. Louis soon will be available for everyone to view via The Sheldon’s YouTube channel.

The first three pieces that will go online at 8:00 p.m. Thursday, March 25 are “The Grace of Falling” by Santiago Beis, “Aubade with Ashen Clouds, Scarlet Sky“ by Oswald Huynh, and “Poem of the Phantom Queen” by Daniel Fitzpatrick.

All three works were written as the result of a partnership between The Sheldon (pictured) and the Mizzou New Music Initiative that since 2012 has commissioned new music to premiere live as part of the long-running Sheldon Classics series at the hall.

Performed variously by members of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Mizzou faculty or fellow students and funded by Dr. Jeanne and Rex Sinquefield and the Sinquefield Charitable Foundation, the commissions are intended to “offer emerging composers the opportunity to premiere their works in a professional setting, and classical-music lovers the chance to experience some of today’s most adventurous new music.”

Additional world premieres will be added as The Sheldon’s season continues into mid-June.
