Kaleidoscope : Music by Quinsin Nachoff

salle du Gesù 1200, rue de Bleury, Montréal, Québec, Canada

 The Molinari String Quartet, violinist Nathalie Bonin, NYC musicians Mark Helias and Satoshi Takeishi, conductor JC Sanford and Toronto vibraphonist Michael Davidson get together to perform the music of Quinsin Nachoff.

NYC-based Canadian composer and saxophonist Quinsin Nachoff has earned a reputation for making “pure, bracing, thought-provoking music” that is “cliché-and convention-free” (Ottawa Citizen). Exploring the elusive terrain between modern jazz and contemporary classical, between the cerebral and the organic, Nachoff reveals a fervently original sound that evokes bold, incisive playing.

This concert is made possible through the generous support of The Canada Council for the Arts.
