Praised by The Washington Post as playing with “marvelous virtuosity,” Alturas Duo is recognized as one of the most engaging ensembles performing chamber music today. This concert will feature new music written especially for the Duo by Leo Brouwer, Javier Farias, and Ronald Pearl as well as folk music learned in the oral tradition in South America and later rearranged for the duo’s American performances.
Music in the Museum is a series organized by the Colby College Music Department, featuring local and regional musicians who perform live in the Colby Museum galleries.
