  3. Powerhouse Strings: Mendelssohn’s Octet & More


Eleven of the world’s most renowned string artists converge: violinists Carolin Widmann and Benjamin Beilman, bassist Nina Bernat, and the doubly dynamic Viano and Opus13 quartets! The World Premiere of Alistair Coleman’s evocative Ghost Art Canticles for string quartet & double bass is followed by Finnish superstar Olli Mustonen’s strikingly modern Nonetto II. Then, hang on to your seats for Mendelssohn’s monumental and beloved Octet for Strings interpreted by two acclaimed young string quartets.

6:30pm | Prelude Performance by local young artists

CMNW Commission • World Premiere

Alistair Coleman’s Ghost Art Canticles has been commissioned by CMNW with generous support from Ravi Vedanayagam & Ursula Luckert.
