Zz Sphere Ensemble - 2021 - Rhapsody in Blue

Zz Sphere Ensemble - 2021 - Rhapsody in Blue
Saturday, October 16

Sphere Ensemble's 13 string players perform selections from Wynton Marsalis' At the Octoroon Balls, Mozart's Adagio and Fugue, and our exciting new arrangements of Radiohead, Squirrel Nut Zippers, and Gershwin's beloved Rhapsody in Blue!

Tickets start at $30. Some discounts may apply.
Join Sphere Ensemble, the most innovative string group in the Front Range, at our debut performance at the Lakewood Cultural Center. Experience Gershwin's beloved Rhapsody in Blue in a new, custom version created by our own Executive Director and violist, Alexander Vittal. Rather than showcasing the original piano soloist, Sphere's arrangement will feature the solo and orchestral lines shared between our thirteen amazing string players in a dazzling reimagining of the original work. We will also give a unique take on the music of jazz trumpeter and composer extraordinaire Wynton Marsalis. Featuring four contrasting movements from his String Quartet No. 1: At the Octoroon Balls, which "explores the American Creole contradictions and compromises – cultural, social, and political – exemplified by life in New Orleans." Following Sphere's tradition of highlighting important voices in pop music, we will also bring to life two completely different songs: Radiohead's inventive, "How to Disappear Completely", with the vocal stylings of our own Artistic Director, Alejandro Gómez Guillén, and the raucous "The Ghost of Stephen Foster" from the brain of Jimbo Mathus and the Squirrel Nut Zippers. Mozart's Adagio and Fugue in C Minor, a superb work written towards the end of his life, will be a chance for Sphere to display our expressive chops. Experience Sphere's brand of exciting music-making in a live program spanning centuries and musical styles!
