“Dialogues | Juxtaposition” featuring Unheard-of//Ensemble
Kaleidoscope MusArt’s 2020-21 season “Echoes of Time” continues with the Dialogues | Juxtaposition program performed by the NYC-based Unheard-of // Ensemble (Ford Fourqurean -clarinet; Matheus Souza-violin; Issei Herr-cello; Daniel Anastasio-piano), which has been praised for “doing more than their part to inject vitality into the new music scene for the last few years” (An Earful), as well as for their “powerfully evocative”(ArtsATL), and “scintillating” (National Sawdust Log) performances.
This program will explore the dialogues and contrasts between an iconic masterpiece of the 20th century – Olivier Messiaen’s cathartic “Quartet for the End of Time,” written in 1941 in captivity at a German prisoner-of-war camp, and two works by award-winning living composers: “After the End of Time” by Liliya Ugay and “Please, do tell – Six Bagatelles for clarinet, violin, cello and piano” by Morgan Reed Greenwood.
The program will feature a live Q&A with performers and composers.
