Tuesday Matinees: La Catrina Quartet
Tuesday, May 04, 2010 1:58 pm
“How wonderful to hear four young musicians be such good ambassadors for music,” says cellist Yo-Yo Ma of La Catrina Quartet, which promotes new music by living composers and Mexican and Latin-American art music as well as performing the masterworks of the string quartet repertoire. Currently the Quartet-in-Residence at New Mexico State University and the Chamber Music Festival of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, the quartet is Daniel Vega-Albela and Blake Espy, violin; Jorge Martínez, viola and Cesar Martinez-Bourguet, cello. Works by Emmanuel Arias y Luna, Franz Joseph Haydn, Silvestre Revueltas, Javier Alvarez and Alberto Evaristo Ginastera.
