Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective
Kaleidoscope Chamber CollectivePresented by Saffron Hall
Kaleidoscope is Tom Poster and Elena Urioste’s all-star collective of musical friends.
They encompass the full riches of the chamber music repertoire, with a passionate commitment to diversity and unearthing hidden musical gems. Their Saffron Hall debut features music from central Europe and the USA and two substantial works by two rarely heard composers. Dohnanyi’s sextet is supercharged with a sly wit, boisterous high spirits and melodic charm, while Coleridge-Taylor’s delightful early work is a symphony in all but name – big-hearted music of originality and flair. They’re framed by Mozart’s joyous quartet for a highly unusual line-up and Tom’s own arrangements of Gershwin, a composer who embraced diversity of style and expression like few others, with music that straddles the worlds of art music and jazz, the Broadway musical and the opera house.
