Sarasa Ensemble: Night at the Opera

Sarasa Ensemble explores Mozart’s uncanny knack for capturing human nature in his music in a program titled “Night at the Opera.”

Mozart’s ability to explore the human condition is apparent in his string quartets as well as his operas. This program features not only Mozart works, but compositions by two contemporaries who also introduced dramatic personae in their instrumental music, Hyacinthe Jadin and Carlo Monza.

The concert features Julia Glenn and Susanna Ogata, violins; Anna Griffis, viola; and Jennifer Morsches, cello, and will include Monza’s rarely performed “The Rival Lovers.”

The Sarasa Ensemble is a collective of extraordinary international instrumentalists and vocalists who perform classical music of outstanding quality, spanning the 17th to the 21st centuries, on both period and modern instruments, and bring this music to diverse communities.
