Have you ever wondered what a classical concert is like but never got around to seeing one?Are you curious about what a string quartet is, and how four different people can come together and make amazing music?
Want to hear the difference between music by an Austrian composer writing about 300 years ago and a Mexican composer writing string quartet music today?
If you answered YES to any of the questions above then you have to come join us for our FREE CONCERT on September 25th!
Join us for a casual exploration of the string quartet – starting with the music of the “Father of the String Quartet” Franz Joseph Haydn and then traveling across the ocean to discover the music of South America. This program demystifies classical music with entertaining anecdotes and insights that one may not expect at a traditional classical concert.
Violinists Frances Hsieh and Tomas Jakubek, violist Ben Weiss, and cellist Timothy O’Malley will perform movements from Haydn’s String Quartet Op. 76, No. 1, Dvorak’s “American” String Quartet, Teresa Carreño String Quartet in B minor, and Jose Elizondo’s Danzas Latinoamericanas in addition to arrangements of such popular tangos as El Choclo and Jealousie.
This program is part of CMC’s Hispanic Heritage Month events, which include the free Fiesta on the Square in Summerville (Friday, September 27 from 6-9pm) and the Season Opening Ovation Concert “Tango Meets Classical: Music of Boccherini and Piazzolla” (Sunday, September 29 at 3pm).
