The Rockport Chamber Music Festival Brings the Aizuri Quartet, JCT Trio and Much More BARRY SHIFFMAN, artistic director CONTACT: Karen Herlitz, Director of Marketing [email protected] Phone: 978-546-7391, Ext. 110 DATE: June 3, 2019 The Rockport Chamber Music Festival brings the Aizuri Quartet, JCT Trio and much more Threading throughout the 38th Annual Rockport Chamber Music Festival this year will be the theme of “Source and Inspiration.” With the Festival opening on June 14, the third week (June 27-30) continues the theme with the 2019 Grammy-nominated Aizuri Quartet, the JCT Trio, violist Gilad Karni with an ensemble of musicians, as well as Toronto’s Art of Time Ensemble which will present a program following how the “waltz” has inspired music over 150 years. On Thursday, June 27 at 8 pm, the Aizuri Quartet brings a mixed program of Haydn and Beethoven as well as new works by Gabriella Smith and Caroline Shaw. The Aizuri Quartet, nominated for a 2019 Grammy for its debut album Blueprinting which features new works written for the Aizuri by five American composers, performs two of these works on the program. The Quartet has quickly risen to the top echelon of chamber ensembles, after receiving the 2018 M-Prize Chamber Arts Competition. They recently served as the MetLiveArts String Quartet-in-Residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Through its engaging and thought-provoking programs, branded by The New York Times as “genuinely exciting” and “imaginative,” the Quartet has garnered critical acclaim for bringing “a technical bravado and emotional power” to bold new commissions, and for its “flawless” (San Diego Union-Tribune) performances of the great masterpieces of the past. Based in New York City, the Aizuri Quartet has also served as the 2015-2016 Ernst Stiefel String Quartet-in-Residence at the Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts; resident ensemble of the 2014 Ravinia Festival’s Steans Music Institute; and, from 2014-2016, the String Quartet-in-Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. Formed in 2012 and combining four distinctive musical personalities into a unique collective, the Aizuri Quartet draws its name from “aizuri-e,” a style of predominantly blue Japanese woodblock printing that is noted for its vibrancy and incredible detail. Tickets are $29-$39. Earlier the same day (June 27) at 2 pm, the Aizuri will hold a free Open Rehearsal.
