Posted

The Grammy Award-winning Catalyst Quartet takes command of the historic Old School Baptist Church located at the intersection of Route 36 and Cartwright Road in Denver, on Friday, Sept. 12 at 7 p.m. Founded by the internationally renowned Sphinx Organization in 2010, the quartet has redefined the classical music experience through innovative programming and exceptional performance.  Tickets with Tiered Equity Pricing and information about this performance are available at roxburyartsgroup.org.

The quartet, comprised of Karla Donehew Perez and Abi Fayette on violin, Paul Laraia on viola, and Karlos Rodriguez on cello, will present a classical program with music by Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Joseph Bologne the Chevalier de Saint-George, and Beethoven.

The ensemble’s recent achievements include their groundbreaking UNCOVERED project—a multi-volume recording series on Azica Records that celebrates composers of color whose works have been overlooked by the traditional canon. Their collaboration with Grammy Award-winning jazz vocalist Cécile McLorin Salvant earned them a 2018 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album, while their debut recording, The Bach/Gould Project, features the quartet’s own collaborative arrangement of J.S. Bach’s monumental Goldberg Variations—the first-ever four-voiced version of this masterpiece.
