OM15: Shershow-Peña JpegsDescription
Del Sol String Quartet with OM 15 composer Pawel Mykietyn. Left to right: Rick Shinozaki, Kate Stenberg, Mykietyn, Hannah Addario-Berry, Charlton Lee. Taken during the festivities surrounding the first concert of the 15th Other Minds Festival, at the Jewish Community Center in San Francisco CA., on March 5, 2010.Paweł Mykietyn is a Polish composer and clarinetist, whose works, already widely popular in his home country, are quickly gaining a reputation throughout Europe, and with his appearance at OM 15, the United States as well. He was still a student at the Academy of Music in Warsaw in 1993, when he had his first debut at the world renowned Warsaw Autumn Festival, and has since then become a bit of a mainstay at what is, one of Europe’s most prestigious forums for contemporary classical music. In addition to his composing, Mykietyn has continued his career as a clarinetist, often performing with the Nonstrom Ensemble, a quartet specializing in modern works which he founded.
The Del Sol Quartet, which has performed at several Other Minds Festivals and recorded two albums for the OM label, first formed while at the Banff Centre for the Arts in 1992, and is a well respected interpreter of new music, who has premiered works by such famous contemporary composers as Peter Sculthorpe, Wadada Leo Smith, and Per Nørgård.
