Concert: Death’s Motif
Musician and composer Siobhan Cassidy Robinson has been writing music during this residency that goes beyond the concert stage. She is conceiving a stage production set in the heart of mid-1900s New York, during the golden age of Broadway, director Theodore "Teddy" Blackwood is preparing for his most ambitious play yet! Beneath the glittering surface of the theater, something sinister is unfolding: actors and staff disappear--or worse, turn up dead! The composer and music director, Edmund Vale, secretly uses these dark events as inspiration for his compositions. Unable to finish the final song due to his growing infatuation with the lead actress, Celine Dubois, the show is at risk, and the mystery surrounding the theater grows darker. With the support of local musicians forming a quartet, Cassidy will share some of the immersive music at the core of each character.
This programming is supported in part by Creative West and the National Endowment for the Arts and in collaboration with Classical Queens.

Violin- Jessica Joy Harned

KeAndra Harris- Viola
