Nokuthula Ngwenyama joins The Dover Quartet for the world premiere of ‘Primal Message’ @ West Valley
Mar 3 @ 4:00 pm

Nokuthula Ngwenyama joins The Dover Quartet for the world premiere of Primal Message:

It’s 1974.  What would you like to put in humanity’s first message in a bottle sent 25,000 light years away to globular star cluster M13? Pink Floyd’s proverbial “Is Anybody Out There?”  Great scientific minds included an understanding of number systems and organization, a map advertising to anything between here and there our place in the universe, our DNA structure, and a pictograph with height measurements in meters cleverly embedded. The message was an esteemed testament to humanity’s drive to think, dream, solve and connect existences. But what of the intangible things that make us essentially human, how our zeniths and nadirs tie us in concert with universal celebration?  Was that message effectively communicated?  How might we be rendered today more efficiently and completely with fuller understanding, and what content might be necessary to imbed?  This is the launching point of Primal Message.

BRAHMS ALL-STAR SEXTET @ Washington Irving High School
May 12 @ 7:30 pm

One cannot find six more marvelous artists to do justice to the pure romanticism of the two great Brahms Sextets.  They also happen to be friends who love making music together, as well as being PSC friends. Thula played at Town Hall a few seasons ago; Milena is the violist of the Dover Quartet; Keith, a member of the Miami Quartet; and, of course, Pam, Jaime and Sharon gave us wonderful concerts this past season.  It’s a great treat to hear these two magnificent works with this sterling cast.
