Prepare to be transported into a world where classical music meets innovation as W4RP takes center stage, redefining musical boundaries with its unique sound and unparalleled energy. On Friday, February 9th at 7:30 pm, immerse yourself in an extraordinary musical journey as Mikael Darmanie (Piano), Ju Young Lee (Cello), Rick Martinez (Percussion), and Josh Henderson (Violin) come together in a groundbreaking performance.
W4RP is not just a musical ensemble but a convergence of chamber music finesse, rock band intensity, and avant-garde artistic expression. Experience the electrifying fusion of their original compositions, dynamic interpretations of popular music, improvisation, and fresh perspectives on classical repertoire.
The concert presents W4RP’s own compositions seamlessly woven with Beethoven’s Op. 11 piano trio alongside compositions inspired by the timeless works of Bach and the contemporary brilliance of Kevin Laskey. The concert promises an eclectic musical journey, transcending traditional genres and expectations.
Educational Residency Workshop by W4RP at Concord Conservatory of Music
Before the main event, W4RP extends its passion for musical innovation to the community with an Educational Residency Workshop at the Concord Conservatory of Music. From 5:00 to 6:00 pm, string and piano students in grades 5 to 9 are invited to explore creative expression in a workshop led by W4RP members. Focusing on improvisation and the joy of spontaneous musical creation, the workshop encourages participants to experiment with different styles, techniques, and draw inspiration from real-life emotions. Register at ConcordConservatory.org to embark on this musical journey.
Designed to inspire and teach students how to experiment with different musical styles and techniques, W4RP members will guide students and parents through exercises in creating music on the spot, drawing from real-life experiences of emotion, and using movement and visual prompts to be expressive through their instruments. Participants are encouraged to stretch themselves outside of their comfort zones, and this workshop is open to those at any level of their musical journey. Register at ConcordConservatory.org for the workshop ($10 fee for non-CCM students).
