A fascinating chamber quartet that merges western classical, eastern European folk, Latin and jazz music with an organic feel that packs a wallop!
Quarteto Nuevo’s razor-sharp precision is enhanced by jazzy interludes, lightly rumbling percussion motifs and mesmerizing rhythms. They effectively meld the music of ancient worlds and faraway places with a contemporary groove that enchants audiences of all ages! Quarteto Nuevo’s master musicians create emotionally-charged soundscapes with instruments and sensibilities that represent very different world cultures. Their unique instrumentation – soprano saxophone/woodwinds (Damon Zick), cello (Jacob Szekely), guitar(Kenton Youngstrom) and hand percussion (Felipe Fraga) – richly colors their wide-ranging repertoire, from Heitor Villa-Lobos’ “Bachianas Brasileiras” and Chick Corea’s “Children’s Song No.6” to traditional Macedonian “Gadjarsko” and original works “Hector, Desmond and Titus”, “RainSong” and “Dizer O Que.”
