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.
Dates and Location:
Performances now scheduled from February 29, 2020 – April 12, 2020

More about Alegría:
Alegría (‘joy’ in Spanish) takes audiences at the heart of a once glorious kingdom now in decay led by the king’s fool and a dusty aristocracy. Carried by an intangible wind of change, an emerging movement from the streets strives to shake this established order, instilling hope and renewal to bring light and harmony to their world. With its joyful spirit, Alegría is a vital, energizing force driven by a thirst for a brighter tomorrow.
In true Cirque du Soleil fashion, Alegría unfolds soul-touching clown antics and remarkable acrobatic performances in a whimsical and immersive visual universe. Perched at the top of the Big Top, gymnasts fly from one High Bar to the next, and leap into the void to reach the hands of mighty catchers suspended on a cradle swing. Using all her limbs, an artist dazzles with her ability to spin and twirl a multitude of hoops while contorting her body with otherworldly ease. Other Jaw-dropping highlights include a daredevil Fire Knife Dancer eating, breathing, touching and juggling with flames; a sublime couple on Aerial Straps soaring through a delicate snowstorm; and fourteen tumblers bouncing off a Powertrack (trampoline tracks) embedded into the stage to perform crisscrossing series of daring somersaults.
