Inside the Music: Lera Auerbach

by Jeannette Fang | Feb 1, 2020 | about the music, Composers, GNPQ Blog, new music education, pub concert, Uncategorized

In 2016, I wrote an excited post about Lera Auerbach for this blog, in which I gave a very subjective listing of some facts of her life that I had deemed were fascinating. If some nonsense words from 4 years ago bring nothing to mind for you, here they are again....

Inside the Music: Stylefinder edition

by Jeannette Fang | Feb 20, 2019 | about the music, commissions, Composers, GNPQ Blog, Inside the Music, Uncategorized

by Jeannette Fang Categories are quick, but they are not always accurate, and more often than not they can be misleading. Just take a look at iTunes, where the “Classical” screen encompasses everything from albums of 17th century composer Frescobaldi to...

Inside the Music: Getting to know Harold Meltzer’s Piano Quartet

by Jeannette Fang | Jan 9, 2019 | about the music, Composers, GNPQ Blog, Inside the Music, pub concert

by Jeannette Fang I was first introduced to the music of Harold Meltzer through his 2 Songs from Silas Marner, which stayed in my mind for its simple beauty, the cello evoking a peculiar feeling of loneliness and expanse. It was clear to me that Meltzer had a special...

Our long awaited recording of Paul Moravec’s Piano Quartet is finally out! We commissioned Paul Moravec to write us this work a few years back and have had a blast playing such a fantastic piece. You can listen to and download it on our store page, or any other...

On the upcoming pub concert: Colla, Coors, and Corn Chowder:

by Jeannette Fang | Jan 22, 2018 | about the music, Composers, Composition Competition, GNPQ Blog, Jeannette, new music education, pub concert

Every time I try to describe on this blog a piece of music we’re going to perform, two things happen. I test out a bunch of words that eventually morph into pretentious sacks, and the tunes of “insufferable” and “that’s not right at...

    "This place is a treasure. Experience unlike any other. Go if you have the chance, you will not be disappointed. It's an intimate setting. The people are friendly and welcoming to all."

    - Paul D.

    "I don't know what magic they soaked into these walls, but there is something special about this place. Maybe it's just the remoteness and beauty of the location. Or maybe it's that they treat the artists really well and so get better performances from them. Or maybe it's just that I really like Chef Josh's cooking. Whatever the reason, this place is not to be missed."

    - Lydia F.
