Performing music from their acclaimed album Elastic City, this New York City-based quartet led by clarinetist and composer Kinan Azmeh (also of Silk Road Ensemble fame) brings its virtuosity to the Aga Khan Museum after wowing audiences in Europe, the Middle East, and the US. Western classical music, jazz, and the music of Syria are balanced in Elastic City. Azmeh’s clarinet soars and weaves with Kyle Sanna’s guitar, energized by John Hadfield on percussion and Petros Klampanis on double bass.
