Thursday, November 8
Turtle Island Quartet, A Love Supreme
Whitley Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.
Since 1985, TIQ has been a singular force of bold, new trends in chamber music for strings. Winner of the 2006 and the 2008 Grammy Award for Best Classical Crossover Album, Turtle Island fuses the classical esthetic with contemporary American musical styles. At Elon, TIQ will play John Coltrane’s enduring jazz composition in the greater context of music that preceded and followed this landmark recording.
Admission: $12 or Elon ID. Tickets available Thursday, October 18. For information, phone (336) 278-5610
