Sirius Quartet
Date/Time
Location
BOMBYX Center for Arts & Equity (130 Pine Street, Florence MA)
Internationally acclaimed veterans of contemporary music, Sirius Quartet combines exhilarating repertoire with unequalled improvisational fire. These conservatory-trained performer-composers shine with precision, soul, and a raw energy rarely witnessed on stage, championing a forward-thinking, genre-defying approach that makes labels like 'New Music' sound tame. The ensemble will share music from their latest recording - Incantations. Writes Dave Douglas of this latest project, "the writing of each member is imaginatively folded into a perfectly blended group sound, weaving a rich tapestry of personal statement and narrative. A beautiful recording that captures the emotion and dedication expressed by each member of the quartet." Those we remember never fully disappear from our lives. As artists, Sirius Quartet is gifted with the power to speak to the realm of the ancestors. With this new album, each member calls out to those who came before them. The pieces on this record are their Incantations, through which they speak into the beyond. What they offer to the beyond, they offer to you, the listener, so that we may not forget great people in the ever-flowing river of spirits. SIRIUS QUARTET Card to Culture tickets available.
