Joyce Gives a World-Premier performance of a new concerto by Reinaldo Moya

Joyce gave a World-Premier performance of a new piano concerto written for her by Venezuelan composer, Reinaldo Moya. Commissioned by the Ellis-Beauregard Foundation for the Bangor Symphony Orchestra, this new concerto for piano, strings, and percussion is inspired by the works of visual artist Carlos Cruz-Diez. According to the composer, "the concerto is an attempt to translate some of Cruz-Diez's visual language into the realm of sound. Each of the concerto's movements is titled after a specific technique that Cruz-Diez used throughout his long career". The work came naturally for Joyce as she draws musical inspiration from visual arts and is a synesthete herself.
