"CreArtBox fuses together a variety of art forms to create a wholly authentic, visually and aurally compelling experience." - Broadway World

This internationally-known chamber ensemble presents an exciting program blending music and visual design, performed by candlelight in the beautiful setting of the Angel Nyack. Featuring works for piano quartet by Mozart and Mahler; Debussy's Petite Suite and Dvořák's magnificent "American" String Quartet, arranged for flute, violin, viola, cello and piano. The program also features Thousandth Orange, a contemporary work by Pulitzer Prize and Grammy winning composer Caroline Shaw.

"Thousandth Orange, for violin, viola, cello and piano, creates a similar effect to the still-life paintings of Caravaggio and Van Gogh." - Gramophone.co.uk
