The Raritan Valley Community College Arts & Design department is launching a virtual concert series to help defray the cost of private instructional lessons for RVCC music majors. The first virtual concert, “The Music of Catalonia: Works by Migó, Brotons & Cervelló,” will be live-streamed from the RVCC Nash Theatre on November 8, at 2 p.m. The concert will feature artists Paul Cohen (saxophone); Anna Keiserman (piano); Elena Chernova-Davis (violin); and Philipp Sheegog (cello).
The concert is the first selection in the department’s MOZAIKA Concert Series, created to promote multicultural dialogue through the performance of music, from the classical canon through the 21st Century. Music of living composers from around the globe will be featured throughout the series. All concerts will be held on the second Sunday of the month at 2 p.m., and an online discussion with the musicians will follow the performances. The artists will offer their interpretation of the works, sharing their thoughts on the composers’ diverse identities and unique artistic languages.
The November 8 concert is dedicated to the music of Catalonia, featuring compositions by three of its living composers: Marc Migó, Jordi Cervelló, and Salvador Brotons. Their dynamic work showcases the vibrant, rich traditions of the region’s proud people.
