About this listen
Among the many composers to write music for the Relache Ensemble, Mary Ellen Childs has been one of the more active collaborators. The first of her compositions for Relache is named “Parterre.” It became a prominent part of Relache’s touring programs and was commercially recorded for the Minnesota Composers forum label. (You can hear it on Episode 18, Music in Motion Part Two.) Another work, and the featured composition on this episode is titled “Carte Blanche.” It was commissioned by Relache with funds from Champaigne Taittinger and premiered on the “Taittinger Evening of American Music” program in New York City and Philadelphia that was developed by Drew Keegan, then the Director of Marketing for Relache. In addition to a complete recorded performance by Relache of “Carte Blanche,” you will hear conversations with Mary Ellen and Drew about their work and years with the Relache Ensemble.
