Music for Montauk 2020 Season
The Overlook Quartet in a live virtual performance
Click HERE at 6.30pm, Friday, 8/28/2020 to see a special performance given by 'The Overlook Quartet'
The Overlook, formed in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, is a string quartet dedicated to performing concert music by Black composers. They can be found playing open-air concerts for their neighbors in upper Manhattan, collaborating with living Black composers and songwriters, seeking out more wrongfully overlooked music to add to their quickly-growing repertoire. Prior to the COVID-19 shutdown of the performing arts, the quartet’s members (violinists Monica Davis and Adda Kridler, violist Angela Pickett and cellist Laura Metcalf) enjoyed busy performance schedules both on tour internationally with chamber groups such as award-winning string quintet Sybarite5 and in the orchestras of top Broadway musicals.
