Event Details
This concert presents the highly unusual pairing of keyboard percussion - the 'sticks', with 'strings' in the form of a traditional string quartet and double bass. It is also a confluence of musical styles from improvised jazz to classical chamber music with each work representing an intentional crossing of these musical boundaries.
Performers: David Kemp - vibraphone & marimba, Luke Moller - violin, Adam Cadell - violin, Mike Patterson - viola, Danielle Bentley - cello, Andrew Shaw - double bass
Featured non-Australian music: Fantasy on Two Themes by Chick Corea (Arr. Tim Garland), V5 - Quintet for Vibraphone and String Quartet by Lior Navok, Contradanza by Paquito D'Rivera (arr. David Kemp), Libertango by Astor Piazzolla (arr. David Kemp)
