Spektral Quartet

Something to Write Home About

One of Spektral Quartet’s most inventive and interactive programs invites concertgoers to join the creative process by writing five postcards across the evening with stimulating visuals and provocative writing prompts from the quartet. For each piece, the listener is drawn closer to the composition, using the music as the leaping-off point for audience members to pen a short message to someone special in their own life. Writing on custom-made postcards featuring the alluring work of visual artists, concertgoers become creators right alongside the Quartet…and reconnect with loved ones in unexpected ways.

This event includes a prelude interview at 7 PM.

TOMEKA REID
Prospective Dwellers

“The Spektral has accomplished the signal service of obliterating the dividing line between past and present, tradition and avant-garde; chronological barriers collapse, and the sounds roam free.”

– Alex Ross, The New Yorker
