"Notes From Azerbaijan" to be presented on Sunday evening at Carnegie Hall

26 March 2006 [21:27] - TODAY.AZ
The Kronos Quartet has been such a tireless explorer of music from around the world that it sometimes seems like a musical travel agent for American audiences.

Its latest exploit, "Notes From Azerbaijan," presents music by Firanghiz Ali-Zadeh, a world-class pianist (in the words of the Kronos violinist David Harrington) who brought the music of Messiaen, John Cage and George Crumb to her native republic, The New York Times writes.

The program includes a sizable work by Rahman Asadollahi, a master of the garmon — a kind of accordion — and a political exile who now lives in Los Angeles. The concert to take place on Sunday at 7:30, Zankel Hall, Carnegie Hall.
