Arditti Quartet residency at the University at Buffalo

The Center for 21st Century Music at the University at Buffalo is pleased to announce an upcoming residency of the Arditti Quartet during August 19 - 22, 2022. The Arditti Quartet was scheduled to be a resident ensemble at June in Buffalo 2022 where they were to rehearse, workshop, and record the works of June in Buffalo participant composers, as well as give a concert of works featuring the works of June in Buffalo senior composers. Unfortunately, the Arditti Quartet was not able to join June in Buffalo 2022 due to complications of Covid. 

On August 19, the Arditti Quartet will rehearse and record the works of participant composers from the festival, some who will travel to the University at Buffalo to work with the quartet in-person, and some who will rehearse via zoom. 

During August 20 - 22, the Arditti Quartet will join the Slee Sinfonietta to rehearse and record June in Buffalo senior composer David Felder's violin concerto Jeu de Tarot 2, featuring violin soloist Irvine Arditti, which was also postponed from June in Buffalo 2022 due to complications of Covid. Jeu de Tarot 2's predecessor, Jeu de Tarot, was recorded by Irvine Arditti and Ensemble Signal and released on Coviello Contemporary.
