Ballads and Broken Rhymes

On Thursday August 21 at 7:30 PM you are cordially invited to Ballads and Broken Rhymes, an intimate performance of a new string quartet by the rising young American composer Dan Visconti. Acclaimed for his "exhilarating musical ideas and powerful lyricism," (Cleveland Plain Dealer), Visconti presents his contemporary reflection on songs of Gershwin and other Tin Pan Alley composers in his inventive and eclectic new work. We invite you to enjoy a guided tour through the piece led by the Corigliano Quartet, hailed by New Yorker Magazine as one of the foremost interpreters of music by living American composers. Reception with the musicians to follow. Free and open to the public. A program by the Canandaigua Lake Chamber Music Festival. Location: Community Room, 2nd Floor.
