Event Description
Seven world-class string quartets will perform at Vancouver New Music’s 2018 Festival. Quartetti features a line-up of versatile contemporary string quartets from Canada, the US and Europe. Of special note, Vancouver’s Black Dog String Quartet will take the stage all three nights, performing works by Navajo/US composer Raven Chacon, and participants from Chacon’s Native American Composer Apprentice Project. Chacon will bring his unique workshop to Vancouver in advance of the festival, working with local Indigenous youths to create pieces for string quartet that will be premiered at the festival.
