ACMI: Festival Finale Community Concert
August 13 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
In collaboration with the Bay View Music Festival, join the Billboard charting, 7-time national prize winning Akropolis Reed Quintet for an afternoon of “sheer musical imagination” (Gramophone) at the final concert of their chamber music institute with 12 emerging instrumentalists and 4 composers from around the country! This concert features world-premiere works alongside performances of some of the most luminary living classical composers of today.
Celebrating their 15th year as “a sonically daring ensemble who specializes in performing new works with charisma and integrity” (BBC Music Magazine), Akropolis has “taken the chamber music world by storm” (Fanfare). Remaining the same 5 members since their founding in 2009, Akropolis delivers 120 concerts and educational events worldwide each year and has premiered and commissioned over 130 works by living artists and composers.
