SUMMARY:Destruction and Rebirth: Barber and Beethoven at the West End Museum
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column]Destruction and Rebirth: Barber and Beethoven at the West End Museum[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The West End Museum, in collaboration with Crescendo Productions, presents an unforgettable musical experience. Violinists Heidi Braun-Hill and Renée Hemsing, violist Andra Voldins Dix, and cellist Guy Fishman will respond to the West End Museum’s poignant photographic collection through live musical performance.\nIn 1950, Boston chose the West End for demolition under Title I of the Housing Act of 1949, despite the neighborhood exceeding the standards for demolition. In 1958, fifty-four acres of the neighborhood were seized and destroyed; fifty streets and over eight hundred residential buildings were razed, forcing 12,500 people to leave their homes.\nJoin us for an artistically sublime experience as we project photographic images from the West End Museum’s Edgell and Frani Collections (which chronicle life before, during, and after urban renewal) alongside a live performance of two of classical music’s most emotive string quartets, both possessing tonal qualities that convey the ideas of transformation and explore the complex social dynamics that underpin both the destruction and rebirth of the West End neighborhood.\nFeaturing the following performances:\nSamuel Barber (1910-1981)\nString Quartet in B minor, op. 11\nLudwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)\nString Quartet in C minor, opus 18, no. 4[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]\n
