Missy Mazzoli's Dark with Excessive Bright is the centrepiece of the Omega Ensemble's contribution to the festival's imaginative chamber music series. 

En l'absence d'Alice Sara Ott, censée porter la création française du Concerto pour piano de Bryce Dessner, Steve Reich a retenu toute l'attention avec une remarquable interprétation de The Desert Music.

The Kronos Quartet celebrated its 40th birthday on Friday. In Berkeley's Zellerbach Hall, the ensemble explored its history with a performance of Black Angels but also offerred a few surprises.

Cool venue – cool ensemble – cool concert! The Kronos quartet are successful where so many fail in bringing the often-too-distinct worlds of pop/rock and classical together. This concert highlighted their commitment to forging their own performance aesthetic by only programming music that has been written specifically for them.
