Syzegy’s ‘A Right Royal Feast’
Concert 1: Cornbread 'n' Coca-cola
Sunday March 28 @ 3-6PM
with guest soprano Greta Bradman
Laila Engle / Leigh Harrold / Julia Stoppa

The Syzygy Ensemble commence their inaugural concert series with two masterpieces of the 20th Century. George Crumb’s haunting ‘Apparition’ sees the pianist excavating sounds from inside the piano and out, while Robert Beaser’s epic ‘Variations’ for flute and piano demands no less than limitless stamina and stylistic invention from its two players.

This meaty exploration of all things American is complemented by tiny but exquisite tidbits from Aaron Copland and John Corigliano
Ticket Bookings can be made here
