Event
Bohemian Quartet in Concert at ACGOW
Bohemian Quartet is coming back for an exciting concert on Friday March 11, 2016 at 7:30pm at Artists' Cooperative Gallery of Westerly in Westerly, RI. A show not to be missed!
Watching The Bohemian Quartet perform live is like listening to history being preserved. In many ways, this gifted and exhilarating act is simply keeping a rare musical flame alive by taking on the challenging oeuvre of the Romany, or "gypsy" musical tradition. Those of you who've already seen their show know how mesmerizing and captivating it can be. Those who've missed it thus far are in for a treat! You can see them on Friday, March 11th at 7:30pm, in the intimate setting of the Artist Cooperative Gallery of Westerly, 7 Canal Street Westerly, RI 02891.
The acclaimed ensemble featuring the violin, viola, cello, and bass was formed in 2005. Violinist Stan Renard, a composer and virtuoso player with an impressive list of credentials, assembled the group with the idea of preserving the tradition and indulging in the virtuosic playing of classic gypsy music. Renard recruited like-minded and ambitious friends: Christine Harrington on cello, Nancy Richardson on viola, and Dave Zinno on upright bass. Together, they are capable curators, tackling ancient traditions, and still leaving room to wander off into newer, lovely, and more modern directions.
So don't hesitate to take advantage of this great musical moment. Go to enjoy the historic traditions. Go to witness the musical virtuosity. But above all, go to have a great time, listening to fine music.
Tickets are $20 and include wine and snacks at intermission. There is limited seating at the Gallery and each time the Bohemian Quartet played at the Gallery, the show was sold out. Please get your tickets early!
