Quartet Nouveau returns to the Encinitas Library joined by baritone Jonathan Nussman for a free community concert. This one hour performance features the Juliet Letters by Elvis Costello and The Brodsky Quartet. This piece was inspired by a Veronese academic who had taken on the task of replying to letters addressed to "Juliet Capulet." The idea of what was in these letters provided the inspiration for this work and Costello said about the music, "It's not a rock opera. It's a new thing." Quartet Nouveau is a San Diego based string quartet and is happy to collaborate with Jonathan whose varied interests include opera, theater, improvisation and chamber music. This concert is made possible by a grant from the Qualcomm Foundation. Related events:

A trailblazing female-led program coinciding with Women’s History Month, featuring three new works choreographed by Resident Artists Lauren Flower, Bethany Green, and Carly Topazio, to be presented at The Light Box Theater in Liberty Station.

There will also be a Virtual Stream of the full program on March 25 at 7 p.m. (PST).

Empower spotlights female choreographers that are evolving the art form with their own unique artistic voices. Receptions will follow the March 23 and 24 performances, giving attendees the opportunity to meet and mingle with the company artists, and an Artist Talk-Back (Q&A) will follow the March 25 performance, allowing the choreographers to speak about their work in more detail.
