earth. wind. water. fire.

Join us for an evening celebrating the natural forces of earth, wind, water, and fire through the works of renowned composers Michael Torke, Philippe Gaubert, Zoltán Kodály, and a special Composers Circle Commission by Oliviana Marie. The concert features a unique blend of flute, viola, cello, piano, and marimba, beautifully capturing the essence of the elements.

The program includes Torke’s evocative After the Forest Fire for flute, cello, and marimba, Gaubert's impressionistic Trois Aquarelles for flute, cello, and piano, and Kodály’s lyrical Adagio for viola and piano. The highlight of the evening will be the premiere of Oliviana Marie's The Elements, a four-movement composition inspired by the beauty and power of nature.
