ATTACCA STRING QUARTET
AMY SCHRODER and DOMENIC SALERNI, violins
NATHAN SCHRAM, viola
ANDREW YEE, cello
Palaver Strings joins forces with the Grammy award-winning Attacca Quartet for a unique collaborative performance. Selected musical works explore themes of togetherness and collective vision, in human communities, physical space, and the natural world.
Caroline Shaw’s Plan & Elevation responds to the landscape of Dumbarton Oaks and ideas of space and proportion. Paul Wiancko’s Only Ever Us reflects on human connection, while Under the Sea Wind, co-composed by Dana Lyn and Kyle Sanna for Palaver Strings, explores the interconnectedness of marine ecosystems. The program concludes with Dvořák’s Serenade for Strings, an iconic staple of string chamber repertoire, featuring the combined forces of both ensembles.
“We’re living in a golden age of string quartets...It’s hard to disagree when you hear the vibrant young players in New York’s Attacca Quartet.” NPR
