Celebrating Venezuelan Folk Music with Eddy Marcano
Apollo Chamber Players welcomes Latin Grammy-winning violinist Eddy Marcano with Baden Goyo (piano) and Sebastian Marcano (cuatro) for a program featuring new compositions and arrangements of Venezuelan folk music. Continuing our Bartók string quartet cycle, we highlight the Hungarian composer’s exuberantly primal fourth string quartet, considered by many to be among his greatest compositions and most deeply connected to his lifelong exploration of folk music.
Program:
· Albert Hernández/Trino Jimenez: Venezuelan Suite, for string quintet and piano
· Trino Jimenez: Canciones varias Venezolanas, Polo margariteno & Golpe Amalia Rosa
· Fuga con Pajarito: A. Romero
· Béla Bartók: String Quartet No. 4
Guest Artists:
Eddy Marcano, violin
Baden Goyo, piano
Sebastian Marcano, cuatro
Círculo de lectura activa.
La lectura nos permite ver el mundo de una manera distinta, encontrar ese pedazo en el universo que nos hace falta. Los libros nos muestran que se puede encontrar el amor en un sonido o en una flor.
El círculo está centrado en la lectura y análisis de textos de ficción en español. El ejercicio del círculo literario pretende brindar nociones prácticas que permitan el acercamiento crítico a géneros literarios en español.
El ejercicio de leer nos pertenece a todos, hayamos o no estudiado formalmente.
Continuamos en febrero con nuestra reunión del círculo de lectura activa con el libro “Aura” de Carlos Fuentes, el sábado 15 de febrero, estaremos charlando y compartiendo apreciaciones sobre este libro.
Recuerda llevar tu vaso, tu bebida preferida y algo de comer para compartir con el grupo.
