A Night with the Masters Remix Offered in Guilford
Project: Music Heals Us will present “Mixtape Vol. 2—A Night with the Masters Remix” on Friday, Nov. 2 at St. George Catholic Church, 33 Whitfield Street, Guilford. A pre-concert lecture with Luke Fleming will begin at 6 p.m.
The program features Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s String Quartet No. 15 in D Minor, K. 421 and Franz Schubert’s Quintet in C Major. Violinists Yuval Herz and Robin Scott, violist Molly Carr, and cellists Marcy Rosen and Andrew Janss perform.
Violist and founding director of Project: Music Heals Us, Molly Carr has been praised for her “ravishing sound” (The Strad) and her “passionate talent and beautiful poise” (AVS). She will be joined by Israeli violinist Yuval Herz and violinist Robin Scott, the newest member of Eastman’s string quartet-in-residence, the Ying Quartet, as the Grammy-winning ensemble’s first violinist. Completing the ensemble are cellist Marcy Rosen, whom Los Angeles Times music critic Herbert Glass has called “one of the intimate art’s abiding treasures,” and cellist Andrew Janss, hailed by The New York Times for his “muscularity, shimmering lyricism...and sumptuous elegance.”
Tickets at the door are $20 for adults and $5 for students, with all proceeds directly subsidizing additional Healing Concerts played in local nursing homes, hospitals, hospices, homeless shelters, and prisons. Project: Music Heals Us presents interactive classical music performances to diverse audiences in order to provide encouragement, education, and healing, with a focus on elderly, disabled, rehabilitating, incarcerated, and homeless populations.
