Linden String Quartet; Gabriel Kahane, voice and composer

Closing out its Caramoor Residency, the riveting Linden String Quartet delves into an exploration of the mutual influences of music and literature. The Lindens team up with singer-songwriter and polymath Gabriel Kahane for world and East Coast premieres in a program set in relief by Corigliano’s intriguing approach and anchored by Beethoven’s late masterpiece.

Program: John Corigliano: Snapshot: Circa 1909; Corigliano: A Black November Turkey; Kahane: Come on All You Ghosts for string quartet and voice (East Coast premiere); Kahane: New work for String Quartet (World premiere of Volume XIII of Caramoor’s Commissioning project: A String Quartet Library for the 21st Century); Beethoven: String Quartet in A minor, Op. 132

Fridays only: Doors open at 7:00pm for a self-guided tour of the Music Room in the historic Rosen House.
