Projecto Arcomusical
October 31, 2019 | 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
FreeArts NC State proudly presents Projeto Arcomusical, a world music sextet reimagining the Afro-Brazilian berimbau through unique and powerful chamber music, in concert on Thursday, October 31.
The ensemble formed in 2013 specifically to interpret MeiaMeia, the composition cycle co-composed by ensemble co-founders Gregory Beyer and Alexis C. Lamb. Arcomusical released MeiaMeia as its first album in 2016 on Innova Recordings. That same year Arcomusical received a Chamber Music America Classical Commissioning Grant that produced Roda the kaleidoscopic, twenty-minute, four-movement work by Elliot Cole. Roda is featured on Arcomusical’s second album, Spinning in the Wheel, now available on National Sawdust Tracks.
Admission is free of charge. Projeto Arcomusical is sponsored by Chamber Music America, the Illinois Arts Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, the DeKalb County Community Foundation, and the Northern Illinois University College of Visual and Performing Arts.
