THE HUBER MARIONETTES
THE DONALD P.
August 31, 2018, 7:30 PM Suspended Animation (Behind the Strings) Ford Theater, Bliss Hall, YSU
Phillip Huber is like a classical concert violinist or pianist who works to master every note in the score and performs with perfection. He is there onstage with the marionettes – you are aware of him in the shadows, perhaps a dim colored light on his face – but below, his marionettes are alive all by themselves with feelings, passions, attitudes, and personality. Suspended Animation is a series of variety vignettes selected from the Huber Marionettes Characters cast. The lighting is dramatic, the stage presence is elegant, and every movment is carefully timed and choreographed. “The Huber Marionettes are nothing short of riveting” (Los Angeles Times). www.hubermarionettes.com

For over two decades, worldrenowned clarinetist David Krakauer has been reinventing and remixing the Jewish music of his ancestry with the sensibility of a contemporary musician strongly informed by funk, jazz, and hip-hop. The Sydney Morning Herald said this: “I may have just heard God - and he plays the clarinet . . . The lush fields upon which Krakauer’s astounding clarinet playing occurred were provided by one of the finest bands ever to visit Sydney . . . think of the most incendiary klezmer, inventive jazz or moving sonic poetry, and this was Sheryl Bailey (guitar), Jerome Harris (electric bass), Michael Sarin (drums), and Jeremy Flower (sampler).” www.davidkrakauer.com
Harlem Quartet is a New York-based string quartet that advances diversity in classical music with varied repertoire including works by minority composers. Since its public debut at Carnegie Hall in 2006, it has appeared throughout the U.S. as well as in Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Ethiopia, France, Panama, South Africa, Venezuela, and the U.K. The quartet has performed on chamber series across the country; engaged in numerous educational residencies and masterclasses; and collaborated with such artists as violinist Itzhak Perlman, cellist Carter Brey, clarinetist Paquito D’Rivera, saxophonist and composer Tim Garland, and jazz artists Chick Corea, Gary Burton, and John Patitucci. www.harlemquartet.com
