TICKETS + INFORMATION

Ellis “San Fermin” Ludwig-Leone just did a dance piece in Montclair with text by the peerlessly creepy Karen Russell sung by the piquantly dusky soprano (when she isn’t singing pop) Eliza Bagg, and now he presents a similarly staffed song cycle, with the Catalyst Quartet giving instrumental support and also playing a quartet Ludwig-Leone composed. But I still keep finding myself unable to decide whether Ludwig-Leone’s pop-meliflous Alt Classical and classically inflected Chamber Pop are exquisite or too precious. Which is never an issue with blistering violinist-composer Darian Donovan Thomas.
