This all-female string quartet hails from New York City but has a long-standing relationship with Memphis through Iris. Their 5-day residency includes workshops and performances in educational, community and healthcare settings. Using the practice of deep listening developed by composer Pauline Oliveros, the group will invite audiences to join them in this meditative practice which promotes peace and well-being. Their final performance at Crosstown Arts will include an eclectic program of music by under-represented composers that will engage the audience in deep listening, dialogue and joyful music-making.
