https://apollocp.org/MUTEDTixApollo Chamber Players’ Silenced Voices season finale uplifts voices that have been suppressed by totalitarian dogma and those silenced within ourselves. While Dutch-Jewish composer Dick Kattenburg perished in Auschwitz because of his faith, Robert Schumann perpetually battled and was ultimately defeated by the scourge of mental illness.
Join us for MUTED and experience the world-premiere of “Forgotten Dutch Melodies” by Netherlands-based composer, Joey Roukens. This new commission for string quartet explores the rich tapestry of Dutch cultural heritage, rejuvenating obscure folk songs to reveal a captivating blend of history and tradition
A portion of concert proceeds will benefit Ellie Health and Mental Health America, two organizations dedicated to providing relief to families and persons affected by mental illness.
