Off the Beaten Path: Works by Rota, Ewazen, and more

Basil Vendryes is the Principal Violist of the Colorado Symphony, and is a former member of the San Francisco Symphony, the New York Philharmonic and Rochester Philharmonic orchestras. As a member of the Aurora String Quartet (1986-95) Mr. Vendryes performed recitals in New York, London and Tokyo as well as west coast premieres of works by John Harbison, George Perle, Richard Danielpour, Benjamin Lees and many others. Damien Krzyzek has performed with members of the Boston Symphony, the Saint Louis Symphony, the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, and the Borromeo and Verona Quartets.  He has performed at Tanglewood Music Festival, Jordan Hall, and made his German debut in a program of David Amram’s chamber music at the Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie in Karlsruhe.  

Join Vendryes and Krzyzek for a program of important but lesser known works for viola and piano, including the Intermezzo by Nino Rota and the Sonata by Eric Ewazen.
