The Momenta Quartet premiered The François Vase to a full house at The Rotunda, Philadelphia, PA on Wednesday 30 October 2013. The tragic story of The François Vase was preceded by a moving performance of Bach’s Chaconne by Noco Kawamura.
Parker’s Box Gallery is sponsoring The New York premiere tonight, 1 November 2013, at Soapbox Gallery in Brooklyn. Before tonight’s performance Guy Hedreen will give a lecture and slideshow on “The Dance of Death/Seduction/Triumph on the François Vase.” On Saturday we are headed to the recording studios at the Tisch School of Art to record the Momenta Quartet with John Gurrin.
