Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Caroline Shaw has worked with a diverse range of artists including Kanye West and Dawn Upshaw, and she describes her new project, Orange, as a garden that she tends. Grown from the traces of what came before – the string quartets of Haydn, Ravel, Bartok and Josquin – we’ll hear excerpts tonight performed by Attacca Quartet. Plus music director of the Bach Collegium Japan Masaaki Suzuki performs the Bach English Suites on harpsichord.
