“ensembleNEWSRQ’s second commission receives its World Premiere on April 22, 2019, with a percussion concerto from renowned Portuguese composer, Andreia Pinto Correia, inspired by sketchbooks of Joan Miró (Soloist, George Nickson). Brad Williams reprises his iconic performance of music and acting in Berio’s Trombone Sequenza, while John Harbison’s 6th String Quartet literally breaks down physical boundaries between the stage and the audience, in a moving work celebrating acceptance.”
