The second concert in the 3-concert series, A Nordic Triptych. For information about the other 2 concerts, visit our events page.

~ Private event for the residents of Brightview Commons. ~

We hear from painter, composer, musician, and teacher Antonio Forte about his in-progress paintings for our upcoming series, "A Nordic Triptych." The concert series will feature 9 pieces of traditional Scandinavian folk music arranged by the Danish String Quartet.

Antonio is one of three artists collaborating with the Aurora Chamber Orchestra on this project. Each artist is responding through visual art and poetry to 3 of the 9 pieces on the program. Taken together, each musical piece will be accompanied by its own unique, cross-disciplinary interpretation.
