Violinists Jacqueline Wolborsky and Jeanine Wynton, violist Suzanne Rousso and cellist Bonnie Thron join two of North Carolina’s veteran bluegrass musicians– Hank Smith on Banjo and Pattie Hopkins Kinlaw on fiddle— to create modern, American, acoustic music featuring the full range of their talents as composers and arrangers.
The band, Hank, Pattie & the Current, makes use of traditional bluegrass instrumentation in a nontraditional way to present original music to the listener that goes beyond the limits of the idiom. The arrangements take on a new level of maturation that follows in the footsteps of Bela Fleck, Mark O’Connor, Chris Thile, Sam Bush, Edgar Meyer, and Tony Rice. Hank, Pattie & The Current want to pick up where seminal crossover groups like The Punch Brothers, Strength In Numbers and the ever-changing Bluegrass Allstars call home. The music is vocal and instrumental, allowing the band to experiment with arrangements and tailor the compositions to become vehicles for exploration. Hank Smith plays banjo, Pattie Hopkins Kinlaw plays fiddle and is lead vocalist. The Current includes Billie Feather on guitar and Stevie Martinez on bass.
In addition to joining the band in their music, Mallarme will perform quartet arrangements of “Amazing Grace” by Jennifer Higdon, ” At the Purchaser’s Option” by Rhiannon Giddens, “Sweeter Than Wine” by Ken Benshoof and “Fisher’s Hornpipe” by Mark O’Connor.

Elizabeth Kahn Memorial Concert

Presented by Chamber Music Raleigh featuring the
Mallarmé Chamber Players

Daughter of a New York music critic, the late Paul Affelder, Elizabeth Kahn led a charmed life growing up attending any and all concerts, operas and theater free ​in critics’ seats. She majored in voice and piano at Brandeis University and continued at Brandeis as a graduate student in musicology. She transferred to Harvard University, where she received her Ph.D. in Comparative Literature, studying the relationship between music and text. Over the last 30 years she has worked with many non-profit organizations in the area, especially Chamber Music Raleigh and Arts Access. She and her husband, Joe, owned Word Pros, a concert program note service. Joe Kahn, pictured above with Elizabeth, marks his 50th year supporting Chamber Music Raleigh and will present a eulogy at the start of the program. The program was in part chosen by Elizabeth during her brief illness last Fall. Mallarme mourns the loss of Elizabeth and honors her service to the arts in North Carolina.

PARTNER EVENT: A Stranger in a Strange Land with the North Carolina Baroque Orchestra
2023-04-22 15:00 - 17:00 | First Presbyterian Church Durham, 305 E Main St., Durham, NC, 27701, United States
Mallarmé Music presents our friends, the North Carolina Baroque Orchestra (NCBO) as they explore an intriguing program of music by composers born in one country who traveled to other countries to compose and play music. You’ll hear the influences of their birthplaces, along with new influences from their adventures to other lands. Georg Frideric Handel was born in Germany, studied and made his first mark in Italy and spent his career in England. Willem de Fesch of the Netherlands joined Handel’s orchestra in London. Jean-Baptiste Lully, a consummate Frenchman, was born Giovanni Battista Lulli in Italy. Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges traveled from his birthplace, the French colony of Guadeloupe, to France. Born to a French planter and an enslaved African woman, Chevalier de Saint-Georges gained his education and his musical training in France, becoming a virtuoso violinist, composer and conductor. Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, though living her life in France, could be called a stranger in a strange land – making her way in musical society as one of the very few professional female composers must have been just as challenging as for a foreign composer making their way in a new country.
The North Carolina Baroque Orchestra is a period instrument ensemble co-founded in 2011 by sisters Frances Blaker (artist director) and Barbara Blaker Krumdieck (executive director and cellist).
During the orchestra’s 10 years, they have been happy to bring performances to many venues in North Carolina as well as South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia and Tennessee, often working with local choirs.

Bach Cantata Series: Solo Cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach with Molly Quinn, soprano and Mallarme Musicians directed by Dr. Philip Cave

J.S. Bach’s church cantatas are often considered the pinnacle of German sacred music, works whose theological depth and emotional resonance touch deep places in the human soul. The Chapel’s Bach Cantata Series presents these musical masterpieces accompanied by other notable choral and instrumental works of the Baroque era. For this final concert in the series, we are delighted to welcome back Molly Quinn, presenting some of Bach’s loveliest cantatas for solo soprano and orchestra.

Being in love with laser his whole life, Jason Salt has been providing immersive abstract laser art to the entertainment scene since 2007. His first show was at the IEEE annual banquet and featured a self-built single color laser projector and used function generators out of the college lab to perform live abstracts to music. Intrigued with how laser projectors work, Jason started building his own systems in his garage. In 2013 Jason build his first full color RGB system. This was also the first system that interfaced with control software providing recording capabilities. Using Mathematics and Science, Jason was able to transform a laser into an artistic display of abstract colors and patterns and sync it to music. Learning about various hardware and software platforms Jason decided to build a custom live performance console. The console features old school analog controls, as well as new school digital controls. What really sets his console apart are the two laser projector preview windows. With the power of the live console and the recognition of the community Jason formed Salty Robot Productions in 2018. Salty Robot Productions has been working out of the Charlotte NC area and has been able to provide laser FX for the Carolina Panthers and All Elite Wrestling. Live laser shows have been included with Western Piedmont Symphony in Newton NC, Yuri’s Night at Kennedy Space Center, and at Bach Akademie Charlotte. Salty Robot Productions partnered with local cellist Kelvin Chang to form Chromatic Strings in 2022, blending classical cello music with abstract laser entertainment.

CONCERT: The Golem silent film with live score in Lancaster, SC
2023-10-29 19:00 - 20:30 | Lancaster Cultural Arts Center, 307 West Gay Street, Lancaster, SC, 29720, United States

Silent Film with original music for baroque string quintet, written by Mark Bergman
Download The Golem press release

ARTISTS
David Wilson, Matvey Lapin – violin/ Suzanne Rousso – viola/ Barbara Krumdieck – cello/
Mark Bergman – bass/ Jennifer Streeter – harpsichord

Widely recognized as the source of the Frankenstein myth, the ancient Hebrew legend of the Golem provides substance for one of the most adventurous films of the German silent cinema. Suffering under the tyrannical rule of Rudolf II in 16th-century Prague, a Talmudic rabbi creates a giant warrior to protect the safety of his people. Sculpted of clay and animated by the mysterious secrets of the Kabbalah, the Golem is a seemingly indestructible juggernaut, performing acts of great heroism, yet equally capable of dreadful violence.
When the rabbi’s assistant takes control of the Golem and attempts to use him for selfish gain, the lumbering monster runs rampant, abducting the rabbi’s daughter and setting fire to the ghetto. With its remarkable creation sequence (a dazzling blend of religion, sorcery, and special effects) and the grand-scale destruction of its climax, “The Golem” was one of the greatest achievements of the silent era and remains an undeniable landmark in the evolution of the horror film.
