EARLY EVENING'S Performance Discussion:
Transcriptions of J.S. Bach for electronic String Quartet

The Borromeo performs and discusses Bach's Electric Chords, an electronic reworking for string quartet of two Bach organ works:

Prelude and Fugue in E-flat Major, BWV 552, "St. Anne" and

Passacaglia and Fugue in C Minor, BWV 582.

These "Early Evenings" forums are an exciting opportunity to get inside the minds of a composer the performers in an intimate setting. We talk about a single piece, sharing insights, and then give a complete performance of the piece discussed. And, as always, it's all about audience participation, so share your thoughts too!

This is a Free concert, underwritten by the New England Conservatory of Music

This Early Evening encounter previews music that will be performed by the Quartet in our October 18 concert at Jordan Hall, featuring music of Bach, Bartok, Beethoven, and Gunther Schuller.
