The CITG Concert Series will host the Cobalt Quartet with works by the Long Island Composers Alliance. They will perform exciting worksfor saxophone quartet by local composers Allen Brings, Richard Brooks, Larry Dresner, Jay Anthony Gach, Joe Landi, Sunny Knable, and Edward Smaldone. Suggested donation is $20. All proceeds go to the church’s music fund.
The Cobalt Quartet comprises four of the finest saxophonists from the New York metropolitan area – Raymond Kelly, Anthony Izzo; Ryan Mantell, and Josh Lang – and is particularly interested in presenting modern pieces by living composers alongside the very best classics of the repertoire as well as lesser-known contemporary works, both original and transcribed. Since it's founding in the summer of 2017, the ensemble has presented highly varied and exciting programs including a recent concert of all new music as part of a series with AWCANYC and Concrete Timbre. Upcoming performances include collaborations with the MSO, Andrew Koss, and LICA. www.cobaltquartet.com
