McGill, Goodyear & Catalyst
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
This dynamite program of new music by a diversity of composers leaps to the moment with Ad Anah? (How Long?) by James Lee III, and Adolphus Hailstork’s The Blue Bag — a piece dedicated to clarinetist Anthony McGill and inspired by jazz greats Nancy Wilson, Lena Horne, Ella Fitzgerald, and Aretha Franklin. The evening leads with Catalyst Quartet, McGill, and pianist Stewart Goodyear and ends with the fireworks of the Catalysts playing 11 new miniature string quartets. Happy Hour: 5pm, Performance: 6pm.
