This special live concert recording offers a unique element: drawing from 5 recordings worth of material, the evening will include half the program arranged for strings, courtesy of international award winning composer Jonathan Goldsmith. Not happy to tread where others have gone before; Goldsmith has written arrangements for 2 distinct quartets operating as separate identities on stage, coming together only occasionally. The result is a highly innovative, intoxicating high wire act.
Arguably one of the most unique musical performances of the year, please join us and be part of this very exciting and entertaining evening. This event is not to be missed.
