For over a decade the contemporary quartet Cordis has been redefining contemporary chamber music by fusing an original combination of custom-made and traditional ethnic instruments to create their signature sound. Although the ensemble is built upon cello (Jeremy Harman), concert cimbalom (Richard Grimes), piano (Oscar Rodriguez), and percussion (Andrew Beall) – one-of-a-kind creations such as the electric mbira, melodica, and the world’s longest playing cylinder-driven music box also have a way of weaving their way into any given performance.
This group of inimitable musicians will be offering a workshop on The Grand stage on Wednesday, April 4 @ 4:00 pm, preceding the evening’s performance. Pre-registration is required, with an indication of level of musicianship. Admission to the workshop is $15; an additional $5 will allow workshop participants a ticket to the performance.
Funded in part by the New England States Touring program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program and the six New England state arts agencies.
$1.00 from each ticket sold will go to The Grand’s Restoration Fund.
