Chesapeake Music will present the Catalyst Quartet in concert at The Ebenezer Theater at Prager Family Center for the Arts in Easton, Maryland on November 23 at 2:00 pm.

The Quartet members – Karla Donehew Perez and Abi Fayette, violins, Paul Laraia, viola, and Karlos Rodriguez, cello – have crafted an extraordinary program – “Cinematic Refuge” – of works by classical music composers who are also well-known for their scores for the stage and screen. As violist Paul Laraia explained: “Each of us in the Quartet felt drawn to these works because they show how composers known for cinema translated that same intensity and color into chamber music. It’s a chance for audiences to experience the intimacy of a string quartet with the sweep and imagination of the silver screen.”
