SUMMARY:Kootenay Chamber Players - Songs of the New World
DESCRIPTION:Join the Kootenay Chamber Strings for a radiant afternoon of music celebrating Antonín Dvořák’s time in the New World. Written during his stay in the United States in the 1890s\, Dvořák’s String Quartet in F major\, Op. 96 (“American”) and String Quintet in E-flat major\, Op. 97 overflow with the composer’s signature lyricism\, rhythmic vitality\, and heartfelt warmth. \nInspired by the open landscapes of America and infused with echoes of his Bohemian homeland\, these two masterworks capture a unique moment of musical cross-pollination—where folk melodies\, spirituals\, and Dvořák’s own deeply rooted sense of melody come together in perfect harmony. \nThis intimate concert offers a rare opportunity to hear both of Dvořák’s “American” works side by side—an afternoon of glowing string sound\, storytelling\, and spirited ensemble playing. \nAbout the Kootenay Chamber Players \nThe Kootenay Chamber Players bring together five accomplished musicians who share a deep love of collaboration\, creativity\, and community. Drawing on diverse musical backgrounds—from classical and folk traditions to jazz and contemporary styles—the group brings an open-hearted approach to performance that reflects their Kootenay roots: down-to-earth\, adventurous\, and passionate about sharing their craft. \nThe ensemble features Natasha Hall and Spring Burke on violins\, Martine denBok on viola\, Jeff Faragher on cello\, and Rob Fahie on double bass. Together\, they create performances that are rich in warmth\, connection\, and joy—music made by friends\, for friends.
