Week Two

BCMF: OFFBEAT- PRIMED FOR DISCOVERY
Thursday, August 5, 6:30 – 7:30 pm
Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church

This foursome is a chameleon among string quartets, comfortably crossing boundaries to touch down in terrain we don’t often associate with classic chamber ensembles. Whatever pathways today’s composers want to explore, Ethel is eager to follow. In the process, these four open-minded musicians have turned into composers themselves. This program includes compositions by each of the group’s multi-talented members, along with other works in which classical traditions rub shoulders with up-to-date musical exploration.
