A live artist Q&A will immediately follow the performance premiere.

Quartet Kalos features a roster of artists whose lives have intertwined in unique ways - from tours abroad, to schooling, summer workshops, and Midwestern roots. The ensemble will present a program of self-composed works paired with folk music arrangements and commissioned works, offering joyful and reflective songs for their unique instrument combination: marimba, clarinet, cello, and voice. The concert will feature music by Maria Finkelmeier, Beau Kenyon, and arrangements of American and Swedish folk songs.
