June 2019: Special Event 3
William Bolcom Piano Quintet (2001)
Composer, pianist and Seattle native William Bolcom is an American treasure. His compositional output includes symphonies, operas, musical theater, art song, cabaret and of course, chamber music. This special evening brings together musicians from the new music group Brave New Works for a performance of his landmark Piano Quintet (2001)… and much more!
Through an evening of cabaret songs, ragtime, and even Hip-Hop (yes, Hip-Hop!), you’ll come to appreciate why Bolcom has variously been the recipient of the National Medal of Arts, the Pulitzer Prize, and multiple Grammys. Join us in the historic Whitehouse-Crawford Restaurant for this long overdue special event.
Artists: Winston Choi, piano; Timothy Christie, viola; Mary Tuuri Derby, mezzo-soprano; Katri Ervamaa, cello; Stephen Miahky, violin; Maria Sampen, violin; and MingHuan Xu, violin.
