Description
Composed by Fred Sturm, Terra Madre is an Earth Day concert featuring The Four Voices String Quartet and David Milne with the UWRF Faculty Jazz Quartet.
Founded in 1992, the Four Voices String Quartet is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The members have been classically trained in the nation’s leading music conservatories and have professional experience playing with prestigious ensembles in venues throughout the world. “Terra Madre (Mother Earth)” is a musical plea for world unity that celebrates both the diversity and shared influences of indigenous music from nine different countries. Ethnic music, folk songs, and ancient works dating back as far as the 13th century are joined together in this contemporary chamber music setting. Join us on Earth Day 2011, to truly celebrate Terra Madre through this moving musical piece.
