program notes:

"Other Sun" completes a trilogy of electroacoustic chamber works composed by Nancy Galbraith for world-renowned Baroque flutist Stephen Schultz, and the second work to include Pittsburgh's innovative cross-genre electric cello ensemble, Cello Fury (formerly Cellofourte). The first two works include Traverso Mistico, which premiered in 2006 with the Carnegie Mellon Contemporary Ensemble, and Night Train, which premiered in 2008. In "Other Sun" Schultz makes use of looper pedals played through a guitar effects processor to produce reverberating contrapuntal sounds from his Baroque-era flute. Cello Fury was joined by percussionist Brandon Schantz and pianist William Yanish at the premiere performance in November 2009 at Carnegie Mellon University.
