Ice Field
Ice Field is a musical composition by Henry Brant, for large orchestral groups and organ, commissioned by Other Minds for a December 2001 premiere by the San Francisco Symphony.[1] It was awarded the 2002 Pulitzer Prize for Music,[2][3] and premiered on December 12 at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco.[4] A, "'spatial narrative,'"[4] or, "spatial organ concerto,"[5] and thus an example of Brant's use of spatialization, the work utilizes more than 100 players.[6]
The piece was, "inspired by his experience, as a 12-year-old in 1926, of crossing the Atlantic by ship, which navigated carefully through a large field of icebergs in the North Atlantic."[7]
