Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players dig into Folk Roots

April 29 Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players Good Shepherd Church Mei Ying 152 West 66 St
New York, NY United States
212-799-1259 admin@jupitersymphony.com http://www.jupitersymphony.com
Prizewinners pianist Avery Gagliano, violinist Itamar Zorman, violist Paul Neubauer, and 8 Jupiterians will perform works based on or inspired by folk elements: Miniatures by William Grant Still, the "Dean of African American Composers"; Florence Price's Piano Quintet, unmistakably inspired by African-American spirituals, folk tunes, ragtime, and the rhythmic juba dance from the slave plantations of the Deep South; and Antonín Dvo?ák's "Double Bass" String Quintet No. 2, with seductive melodies evocative of Bohemian folk music. It's Out of This World: Dedicated to acknowledge and perpetuate the legacy of the late Jens Nygaard—founder of the Jupiter Symphony—the chamber music series celebrates a legacy that denotes musical excellence, gives performance opportunities to outstanding musicians, and imparts a love of and enthusiasm for music through interesting and unusual programs of works in the standard repertoire, as well as pieces by lesser known composers that deserve to be heard.
