Palaver Strings January 31 Concert at 7:00 PM Originally based in Boston but now based in Portland, Maine, is a musician-led string orchestra and nonprofit organization that seeks to take classical music beyond the concerthall, engaging new and diverse audiences by examining social issues through the prism of artistic expression; its name is derived from the Liberian expression “palaver hut,” meaning a place for discussion and conflict resolution. A quartet of Palaver Strings musicians will teach a workshop for Pineland Suzuki School students on the afternoon of January 31. Then, at 7:00 pm they will present a free public concert of traditional Scandinavian music and string quartets by Haydn and Dvorak, as well as collaborating on a couple pieces with Pineland Suzuki School students. |
