Description

KAIA String Quartet is dedicated to presenting the rich tradition of music from Latin America. This event is a live musical performance. From the tango of the Rio de la Plata to the string quartets of Silvestre Revueltas, KAIA String Quartet is an ensemble devoted to promoting the rich and colorful music of Latin America. One of 2018's "Top Ten Musical Recordings" (Chicago Tribune), KAIA will perform live works by Venezuelan composer, Teresa Carreño, and Claudio Santoro of Brazil. Venezuelan composer Teresa Carreño’s String Quartet in B minor (1896) is described as one of her most sophisticated works in spite of certain restrictions she faced as a 19th century female composer. Claudio Santoro was among the major influential figures in 20th century Brazilian music, praised by his renowned contemporaries Igor Stravinsky and Aaron Copland. He composed the String Quartet No. 3 during his “Nationalistic Period” after 1953 and, although rarely performed, it is one of 500 compositions he wrote throughout his lifetime.
