For Immediate Release - New York, NY - On Sunday, October 19th at 7pm, Composers Concordance cranks up the volume with the fiery electric guitar trio My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama at Harlem’s legendary Shrine.
As part of the ever-adventurous Timbre Tantrum series, where identical instruments collide in sonic mayhem, this edition brings three shredding electric guitars to the forefront. Past tantrums have spotlighted brass and strings — Trumpetation (4 trumpets), TromBonafide (4 trombones), and The Fiddlers (4 violins) — but now it’s time to plug in, turn up, and let the amps roar.
The power trio of Jane Getter, Bruce Arnold, and Gene Pritsker — collectively known as My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama Trio — will unleash a wall of six-string sound, backed by Moppa Elliott on bass and David Cossin on drums. Expect sparks to fly, riffs to duel, and the stage to shake.
Featured works include the world premieres of Gene Pritsker’s Euphony and Paradigm, Jane Getter’s Again, Ann Warren's Inspired b |

The 92nd Street Y, New York (92NY) presents a 50th anniversary performance of one of pianist Angela Hewitt’s signature works, Bach’s Goldberg Variations. The performance takes place on Friday, October 24, 2025 at 7:30PM. In-person tickets start at $45 and are available here. Livestream access is $25 here, available for 72 hours following the performance.
Widely regarded as one of the foremost interpreters of Bach's music, Angela Hewitt returns to 92NY to celebrate 50 years of this globally acclaimed performance - her last New York City concert of this masterwork completely sold out. Following tremendous praise for her four-year Bach Odyssey and her award-winning recording cycle of Bach’s major keyboard works – called “one of the record glories of our age” by The Sunday Times in London – the Goldberg Variations is the ideal showcase of Hewitt’s incredible skill and artistry. |
