Music

We play standard classical repertoire (Beethoven, Haydn, Mozart), but tend to focus more toward 20th century composers (Janacek, Glass, Gershwin, Bartok, Ives, Shostakovich, Bartok). Our purpose is simple: to play music that brings pleasure and provokes ideas in the audience, as well as function as a utilitarian ensemble to record and perform living composers work.
