If you missed our showcase at Northwest Folklife in May, or hey, even if you were there, we have a little throwback treat to one of our favorite moments, filmed a few weeks later at Resonance at SOMA Towers: Skyros Quartet‘s rendition of Peteris Vasks’ String Quartet No.3: II. Allegro energico. We love this video and hope that you do too!
Be sure to check out our other videos, shot in our studios and in fun venues around Seattle, too!
Mozart and… Nirvana?? I might go so far to say it’s the epitome of Second Inversion’s “Rethink Classical” mantra – fusing genres, presenting classical mediums in non-traditional ways, and celebrating Northwest-based music, musicians, and venues. This arrangement was gracefully constructed by Andrew Joslyn and Seth May-Patterson and recorded at the Columbia City Theater.
The Passenger String Quartet is an avant-garde, experimental neo-classical group, formed by Northwest composer/violinist Andrew Joslyn. The group is in high demand as studio session musicians, tours & performs original compositions, as well as backs a wide variety of regional, and national touring groups from David Bazan, DJ Spooky, Suzanne Vega, to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Ivan and Alyosha, Kris Orlowski, Doug Martsche, and many more.
PSQ is:
Andrew Joslyn, violin
Alina To, violin
Seth May-Patterson, viola
Rebecca Chung Filice, cello
