Newport String Project presents: Newport County Concert Series #2

Featuring its resident ensemble, the Newport String Quartet, will performing dazzling works by Bartók, Bacewicz, Kodály, Schulhoff, and Darvishi.

The concert will have an eclectic program of duos, trios, and quartets by composers whose music has been subject to various forms of oppression and censorship. From familiar voices of the 20th century (Bartók and Kodály), to lesser known voices, whose work is finally getting its due (Bacewicz and Schulhoff), to important voices of today (Aftab Darvishi), this atmospheric and thought-provoking program is not to be missed.
