Experience the mesmerizing combination of GRAMMY Award-winning Harlem Quartet and Cuban pianist and composer Aldo López-Gavilán. Praised for his “dazzling technique and rhythmic fire” in the Seattle Times and dubbed a “formidable virtuoso” by The Times (London), López-Gavilán excels in both the classical and jazz worlds as a recitalist, concerto soloist, chamber-music collaborator, and performer of his own electrifying jazz compositions. 

Having toured as a quintet since 2015, this ensemble has developed a cohesive and powerful sound. Concerts and residencies have included Rockport (MA) Chamber Music Festival, Chautauqua Institution, Santa Fe College, Las Vegas’s Smith Center for the Performing Arts, the Chamber Music Society of Detroit, and L.A.’s Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.

As part of the next movement of chamber music, this program primarily showcases original work written for this collaboration and reflecting a fusion of styles & genres.*
