Einstein’s Mozart: Two Geniuses
One performance with Kate Light, Poet

 

Wednesday February 20th, 2008, 7:30 p.m.
Packard Hall, Colorado College
Call the Colorado College ticket information line (719) 389-6606, or (719) 389-6607 for directions or disability accommodation.

The CCP and poet Kate Light team up again for one performance of “Einstein’s Mozart: Two Geniuses” at Colorado College. “Einstein’s Mozart” integrates two of Mozart's great string works with Kate Light's original poetry and prose. The narration draws listeners into ordinary and extraordinary moments of these two exceptional men, while the music -- separating the texts into discrete segments -- casts its own magic. Einstein was an accomplished amateur violinist, and often played chamber music to relax his mind while working through a difficult physics problem. The CCP performs two of Einstein’s beloved Mozart works: the C major Viola Quintet K. 515 and the “Dissonant” Quartet K.465.

Listen to Mozart Eb viola quintet, Menuetto, recorded in 2005
