Well, it’s been a minute. Hope everyone is having a fabulous summer so far!
Our first group muse this year promises to be quite an experience - soothing, intoxicating sounds of a stellar string quartet while enjoying a sip of favorite beverage and company of like-minded spirits. We’ve hosted so many of these events so far, and they all turn out a very fulfilling experience for everyone.
So, come join!
From the ensemble:
Woodworks Paired with a Selection of Folk Tunes
Join us for an early evening concert exploring the roots of the Danish
String Quartet's local music tradition of Nordic folk music. Drawing from a
similar inspiration to Wood Works, Mark O'Connor's Applachia Waltz utilizes
musical influences from Scandinavian and Appalachian folk fiddling crafted
in a classical music setting. We begin our program with other genres of
folk music that are unique and may reflect a different, simpler time. We
explore the works of pioneer Black American female composer Florence
Price's miniature essays in counterpoint based off negro spirtuals. Also
featured are five of Komitas Vartabed's Armenian dances. These melodies
were collected from rural villages and act as a musical link between
families of the Armenian diaspora and their home country.
Price: Five Folksongs in Counterpoint
Brahms (arr. Kryka): Intermezzo No. 2, Op. 118
Vartabed (arr. Aslamazian): Armenian Folk Songs
O'Connor: Appalachia Waltz
Danish String Quartet: Wood Works Nordic Folk Tunes
