"Few young artists are as versatile as the four gentlemen of the string quartet Brooklyn Rider…veterans of Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road project as well as expert advocates for the classical repertory." —The New Yorker
The quartet Brooklyn Rider creates music that is intellectually stimulating and emotionally exhilarating. Illuminating chamber music in new ways, their superb musicianship shines through whether performing the works of the great masters or the music of our time. Born out of a desire to use the rich medium of the string quartet as a vehicle for borderless communication, the innovative Brooklyn Rider introduces new worlds, new sounds, unusual collaborations, and fresh, global insights into the string quartet literature. The concert will include works by Claude Debussy, Philip Glass, the quartet’s own Colin Jacobsen, and others.
Experience the flash of colorful flamenco skirts, the plaintive plucking of the guitar, and the warmth of the violin’s voice at this special performance celebrating the 20th anniversary of Evergreen Museum & Library. Founded in 2005 by violinist Sarah E Geller, SEGUE features unique combinations of award-winning artists, musicians, and dancers who have performed at Carnegie Hall and other prestigious venues. Committed to innovative programming, the New York-based ensemble often performs unknown gems of mainstream composers and premieres of new works. With Evergreen’s rarely exhibited Léon Bakst-designed Seville stage set (1923) as stunning backdrop, the concert will explore Spain’s flamenco dance, from the tragically romantic soleá to the passionate tientos and fiery tango, as well as the rich textural flavors of Latin American composers.
