Event Description
Talented fiddler/trumpeter/composer Daniel Lapp has put together a hot and innovative string quartet, Black Pearl, to perform a modern masterpiece - Quartet #1 by Peter Schickele (American Dreams, 1984)- as well as works by Astor Piazzolla, Darol Anger, Mark Summer, Robert Johnson, Daniel Lapp, Kenji Fuse and Tchaikovsky.
The quartet consists of Daniel Lapp on first violin, Cory Balzer from the Victoria Symphony
on second violin, composer, grunge rocker and wild man of the viola, Kenji Fuse and the
cellist/knee fiddler Linda Bardutz.
Peter Schickele is best known for his comedy albums featuring the satirical music of P.D.Q.Bach, yet his 'serious' music combines elements of diverse modern musical styles including folk and jazz for something truly unique and beautiful. You'll be left wondering why every string quartet doesn't include a kick-ass modern age hoedown in it's repertoire, but then again, it takes eclectic musicians like those in Black Pearl to make this music come to life.
Tickets available from Lyles' Place and McPherson Box Office.
