Pop-Up Concerts: Music for Three Strings

In Memoriam – Wolfgang Rihm
Tuesday, October 29, 2024, 6PM
Miller Theatre at Columbia University

Free admission • Doors open at 5:30PM, music at 6PM
Onstage seating is first-come, first-served.

Three close collaborators and ingenious musicians—Modney (violin), Kyle Armbrust (viola), and Michael Nicolas (cello)—come together to perform Musik für Drei Streicher (1977) (Music for Three Strings) by the prolific and renowned contemporary German composer Wolfgang Rihm, who passed away in July 2024. Celebrated for its emotional intensity and structural complexity, the work pushes the boundaries of traditional string music and demands exceptional technical prowess from its performers.

Sit onstage and enjoy a free drink during these hour-long weeknight Pop-Up Concerts, and mingle with the musicians and fellow concertgoers after the show.
