Southern Theater Welcomes Brooklyn RIder and 2 Foot Yard, 8/24
by Nicolas Coburn - July 13, 2010
The genre-bending New York string quartet Brooklyn Rider illuminates music through adventurous programming, exploring new sound worlds with fresh insight and unusual collaborations. They are joined by the bold and hard-grooving 2 Foot Yard, a trio that merges the visceral power of rock with the intimacy of chamber music. Comprised of violinist/vocalist Carla Kihlstedt, cellist/vocalist Marika Hughes, and guitarist/percussionist Shahzad Ismaily, 2 Foot Yard is a group of kindred musical adventurers who write original songs that 'inventively straddle the classical and vernacular worlds without compromise to either side' (Stereophile Magazine). The two ensembles perform selections from their signature repertoires and come together for the Minnesota premiere of a jointly written composition entitled A Blue Hat Washed Up On Shore, loosely based on the Alan Lightman international bestselling novella Einstein's Dreams about the many natures of time.
