Owls
Alexi Kenney, violin
Ayane Kozasa, viola
Gabriel Cabezas, cello
Paul Wiancko, cello
Owls is a fresh and original new string quartet collective featuring some of chamber music's most creative voices. All of the ensemble's repertoire is arranged specially for the group's unusual forces of two cellists instead of two violinists, "a process that may account for Owls' evident deep investment in each work they play" (The New York Times). The program features two pieces by cellist Paul Wiancko (also of Kronos Quartet), alongside works by Azerbaijani composer Franghiz Ali-Zadeh, minimalism pioneer Terry Riley, jazz legend Chick Corea, indie rock duo Trollstilt, and French Baroque composer François Couperin.
