Free (a free-will offering will be taken)

The Quartet New Generation is an extraordinary recorder quartet from Germany that has attracted broad and enthusiastic audiences throughout Europe, North and South America, Japan, Southeast Asia, and the United States. Hailed as "Four Recorder Virtuosos" by the New York Times and "mind-blowing" by the Los Angeles Times, the Quartet New Generation mesmerizes its audiences through innovative programming that juxtaposes contemporary and early music. Performing on upwards of 30 different recorders of varying shapes and sizes during the course of a typical performance, the Quartet transports the listener into new sonic worlds. Working closely together with current-day composers, these four female musicians draw hitherto undreamed-of sonorities from their recorders.

You have never heard the recorder played this way before, so be prepared to experience some acoustical surprises. For more information, please visit www.quartetnewgeneration.de.
