SUMMARY:Quantum Leap: A Bold Fusion of Chamber Music
DESCRIPTION:This captivating program highlights composer and New Canaan native Gwyneth Walker\, who will also narrate her evocative work “Trails and Open Spaces.” The program will also feature “How Rivers Become Other Rivers” by Marc Chan and Antonín Dvořák’s beloved “Piano Quintet in A major\, Op. 88.” Quantum Leap ensemble performers includer Edita Orlinyte (violin)\, Shan Jiang (violin)\, Suzanne Corey-Sahlin (viola)\, Gunnar Sahlin (cello)\, and Maxim Pakhomov (piano).  \n“True ‘quantum leaps’—the jumps electrons make between energy levels—are actually small but definitive changes\,” explains Gunnar Sahlin\, cellist and founding member of Quantum Leap. “Our ensemble explores those subtle but meaningful shifts in music\, blending contemporary and classical music\, and adapting our performers to suit the music.” Sahlin\, who served as principal cellist of the Norwalk Symphony Orchestra from 2002 to 2024\, adds: “Our group is locally based with an international reach. We have the privilege to collaborate with living composers whose works are played around the world.”  \nFollowing the concert\, guests are invited to a reception\, where they can meet the musicians and composers in a casual\, welcoming atmosphere. \nThis program is supported by the Stamford Arts and Culture Commission. \n
