The Kalliope Reed Quintet concludes their 2023 Fall season with a contrasting concert in collaboration with violinist Francine Trester, featuring Latin American favorites followed by French Romantic Cesar Franck’s Violin Sonata. This concert features works from living composers from across Latin America, beginning with Mexican composers Abraham Gomez and Nubia Jaime Donjuan. Next they will feature two Kalliope commissions, Miguel del Aguila’s Transoceanica, musically depicting an adventurous bus ride from Rio to Lima, Peru, followed by Peruvian/American composer Daniel Cueto’s Amaru, inspired by the Peruvian Deity and featured on their upcoming album! In the second half they will switch to something completely different with the beloved Violin Sonata by French Romantic composer Cesar Franck, with violinist Francine Trester, and arranged for Reed Quintet and violin by the Calefax Quintet.
