Conversation with the Composer: Jeff Louie and Jesse Holstein“There’s a lot of longing in this piece.” With cited inspiration ranging from Schubert to the drum-fill stylings of Ringo Starr, composer Jeff Louie talks through the construction of Saturday’s world premiere “String Quintet” with violist and longtime pal Jesse Holstein. Super Bowl / crossword puzzle analogies abound. Enjoy the conversation, then reserve your seat for an all-star lineup as the MusicWorks Collective is joined by CMW students for an afternoon performance to benefit scholarships to Apple Hill! The Annual Fred Kelley Scholarship Concert features the world premiere of Jeff Louie’s String Quintet. CMW concertgoers will recognize Jeff’s name as a frequent pianist collaborator (and sometimes violinist and violist!). This event includes a collaborative “side-by-side” chamber music performance between MusicWorks Collective musicians and CMW students with works by Antonín Dvořák, Dmitri Shostakovich, and David Stone. Join us for a wonderful afternoon of music! The Annual Fred Kelley Scholarship Concert
