The daring PUBLIQuartet, winner of the Concert Artists Guild Sylvia Ann Hewlett Adventurous Artist Prize and a CAG New Music/New Places Ensemble will appear with pianist and SubCulture composer-in-residence Gregg Kallor in concert at SubCulture on Monday evening, November 3, 2014 at 7:30 p.m. (Doors open at 6:30 p.m.)

Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 the day of performance and can be purchased online at www.subculturenewyork.com or by calling (212) 533-5470. SubCulture is located at 45 Bleecker Street, between Lafayette and Bowery, in New York.

Named a 2013 CAG New Music/New Places Ensemble, the PUBLIQuartet's creative, interactive programming brings a fresh perspective to the classical music scene. Drawing on jazz, world, and electro-acoustic influences, PUBLIQuartet pairs music from the classical repertoire with contemporary works, original compositions, and open-form improvisations that expand the stylistic norms of the string quartet.Current projects include the original concert series MIND|THE|GAP, which connects old and new music by bridging musical content through improvisation, and PUBLIQ Access, a new program for emerging composers that was launched last season at New York's DiMenna Center. In spring 2015, Concert Artists Guild and ChamberMusicNY will present PUBLIQuartet's debut at Carnegie Hall's Weill Hall.

The group performs in a diverse range of venues-from Lincoln Center and 92Y Tribeca to Rockwood Music Hall and Cornelia Street Cafe. Recent concerts have been presented by American Composers Orchestra, Bargemusic, Queens College New Music Collective, Music of Now Marathon at Symphony Space, Hobart William Smith Colleges, Fordham University, and the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra.
