QCMA presents Frisson Ensemble

FRISSON ENSEMBLE Friday, April 5 at 7:30 pm St. John’s Anglican Parish 701 Hampshire St.

The Quincy Civic Music Association will close out its season with Frisson Ensemble on Friday, April 5 at 7:30 pm. Frisson is explosive! It's a group of rising classical music stars from around the world who are the best and brightest of recent graduates from top music schools at Julliard, Curtis and Yale.

Led by director and oboist Thomas Gallant, the musicians all have impressive resumes and have performed in such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center. Submitted photo.

A frisson is a, “delightful shiver up the spine, an artistic thrill,” and Frisson Ensemble will deliver all that and more to its audience at St. John’s Anglican Parish. The group debuted in 2018 and are rapidly becoming one of the busiest classical music ensembles in the U.S. with dozens of performances this year!

Frisson showcases a myriad of rarelyperformed masterworks, standards and

popular music. Listen and enjoy as the group expands and contracts into a variety of classical ensembles, including quintets, sextets and a small chamber orchestra. The ensemble performs its many different combinations of string and wind instruments to enhance the unusual music.

Frisson is famous for technical mastery, plus great charm and wit. Don't miss this delightful and unusual concert. Experience your own private musical frisson!
