Tribeca New Music is thrilled to present the Bergamot Quartet - Best in Score 2023. This concert will feature new and recent works including Arcade by Charles Peck who won first prize in the TNM 2023 Young Composer Competition (Division 1 for composers 22-35 of age). Also featured on the program will be the world premiere of Fortunes Unfolded by Nicky Sohn and recent works by Ledah Finck, Aleksandra Vrebalov, Anna Roberts-Gevalt, and Caroline Shaw.
The Bergamot Quartet is Ledah Finck and Sarah Thomas, violins; Amy Tan, viola; and Irène Han, cello. Founded at the Peabody Institute in Baltimore in 2016, Bergamot Quartet is based in New York City and was the Graduate String Quartet in Residence at the Mannes School of Music for 2020-2022. The Quartet is fueled by a passion for exploring and advocating for the music of living composers, continually expanding the limits of the string quartet’s rich tradition in Western classical music. With a priority given to music by women, they aim to place this new, genre-bending music in meaningful dialogue with the histories that precede it with creative programming, community-oriented audience building, and frequent commissioning.
