Isabella Gellis
The Dissolute Society Comprised of All Sorts
Isabella Gellis’s The Dissolute Society Comprised of All Sorts is a formidable debut for solo piano, performed by Joseph Havlat. Drawing inspiration from Biber’s baroque suite and cannibalizing its gestures, Gellis interweaves the surreal, the silly, and the tactile, forming a musical tapestry that refracts historical tradition through a vividly modern, sometimes absurd lens.
