Description
With a range that can move from the depths of the bass register to soaring melodic lines, the cello can be almost orchestral on its own. Multiply that by eight, place the musicians around the room, and the possibilities become enormous.
This one-night-only program explores those possibilities through music that moves from stillness and shimmering texture to rhythmic energy and sheer sonic power.
