In parallel\, the unique musical ecosystem of the string quartet is a balance of four equal and living elements\, collectively capable of giving voice to the vast beauties and mysteries of our world as well as the highly destructive forces which\, taken together\, represent the single greatest challenge of our time. \nIn their latest project\, Brooklyn Rider has assembled a program anchored by four works symbolically representing earth\, air\, fire\, water; all created within the last century of accelerated and unprecedented planetary change. In addition\, Brooklyn Rider has asked four brilliant composers to write new works that reflect current realities and serve as a musical call to action. After the performance\, the audience is invited to participate in a conversation including insights from Chautauqua’s Climate Change Initiative Director Mark Wenzler. \nProgram \nEARTH\nColin Jacobsen: Short While to Be Here (…after American traditional folk songs collected by Ruth Crawford Seeger) \nWATER\nConrad Tao: Undone \nWIND\nAndriea Pinto Corriea: Aere Senza Stelle \nFIRE\nDmitri Shostakovich: String Quartet No. 8 \nSUMMATION\nOsvaldo Golijov: Tenebrae URL:https://www.chq.org/event/chautauqua-chamber-music-brooklyn-rider/ LOCATION:Elizabeth S.
