Sights and Sounds Concert Series
Mélange
Sunday, February 3, 2019
|
2:00 pm
East Building, SECU Auditorium
Mélange, meaning “an eclectic mix,” changes the rules of chamber music performance. Each audience member has the chance to select the ensemble’s next piece from its rich and extensive menu of more than 30 musical works from 15 styles, ranging from classical to baroque, romantic to jazz, and Latin to Broadway. Neither the audience members nor the performers know which works will be requested each night. The result: a unique performance each time.
Children and adults will enjoy this inspiring and energetic modern-day ensemble that delivers the unexpected.
“They moved as if the music were something they were riding atop, not creating.”—New York Times
