MusicWorks Collective Season Opener ***AT BELL ST CHAPEL***
September 9, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Join us as we start our voyage into Season 27!
***CONCERT LOCATION HAS BEEN MOVED TO BELL STREET CHAPEL DUE TO THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS***
Our program opens with the Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson Calvary Quartet, a work from the 1950s that captures the composer’s masterful fluency with Classical and Jazz forms, with an opening melody based on a spiritual by the same name. Next, we are excited to premiere CMW cellist Adrienne Taylor’s quartet Lullabies in which Adrienne reimagines two lullabies her mother sang to her as a child and one wholly new one that follows the stages of a young child falling asleep. The MWC musicians come together to close the program with the spirited and richly-hued Estampas Nocturnas by composer Manuel Ponce, with each movement portraying a different characteristic of nighttime.
We can’t wait to share this extraordinary music!
