Part of Hancher Up Close

Part of Hancher's 53rd season

Presented in collaboration with the University of Iowa String Quartet Residency Program

An inventive quartet collaborates—in the classroom and on the stage—with our composer-in-residence.

Pianist, vocalist, and Hancher’s composer-in-residence Gabriel Kahane joins the vibrant Attacca Quartet for a performance which employs Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major as a scaffolding. Ravel’s work will be interwoven with Gabriel Kahane’s Klee and Final Privacy Song. The artists, who will also spend significant time in residency with University of Iowa School of Music students, will end the program with a new set of songs written for this occasion.
