Counterpoint in Motion

  • Our Saviour's Atonement Lutheran Church 178 Bennett Avenue New York, NY, 10040 United States (map)

This event has occurred.

Three friends from Washington Heights and Harlem share their love of gut strings and period instruments, while re-imagining the baroque, in a program that spans five centuries. With virtuosity to burn and seamless expression to match, Alexi, Emi, and Bridget illuminate the tension between the human and the divine…and our quest for enduring love via works by Marais, Merula, Biber, Bach, Messaien, Saint-Saëns and Sebastian Currier.

“The Yo Yo Ma of the Harp” - Vogue Senior Editor Corey Seymour

“A spellbinding, thoroughly honest performance that revealed Alexi Kenney’s architect’s eye for structure and space and a tone that ranges from the achingly fragile to full-bodied robustness.” The New York Times

“Emi Ferguson (played) with aplomb and tonal bloom.” The Boston Globe
