Join Grammy-winning ensemble eighth blackbird for a dangerous musical high wire act. This sextet combines the finesse of a finely-honed string quartet with the energy of a rock band, and Fractured Jams presents an absorbing, provocative and motley program. Swedish composer Fabian Svensson enacts a thrilling, virtuosic face-off between the “two sides” of the group, and Philip Glass’s mesmerizing Music in Similar Motion contrasts with the Institute for Advanced Study’s Artist-in-Residence Derek Bermel’s Tied Shifts, a wild Balkan romp.
