Concert | Diderot Quartet: Haydn and His Students


Diderot Quartet proudly presents the second installment of its 'Haydn and his Students' series. This program includes music by Haydn (naturally) and by Anton Ferdinand Titz, who likely studied with Haydn before embarking upon an illustrious musical career in St. Petersburg and crafting some of his own extraordinary string quartets. The program closes with the deservedly famous 'Harp' quartet by Haydn's most renowned student, Beethoven. Have the disciples out-composed their mentor? You be the judge.

Theater | If We Don't Get It, Shut It Down: A Play About the Baltimore Uprising


Morgan Stevenson premieres her senior thesis play, which details the events of the Baltimore uprising that occurred last spring. It is an interview-based theater production performed by current New School students and alums, who perform the stories of Baltimore's youth of color, the most pivotal force in the fight against police brutality and institutional racism. The structure of the play allows audiences to focus narrowly on the stories of the youth and question the integrity of mainstream media who were responsible for the defamation of protesters during this time. Following the performance, the audience will be able to engage directly with the Baltimore youth activists who inspired this play through an interactive panel discussion. This event occurs April 22-23.

Jazz | E.J. Strickland and Transient Beings, Adventurous Post-Bop Group


“A central figure within the present wave of dynamic and open-minded post-bop.” — The New York Times Rhythmically innovative jazz drummer E.J. Strickland leads this adventurous new project, which he describes as “a sonic exploration into the one trait that unites us all: impermanence.” Weaving together shades of jazz, Afrobeat, funk, and rock, the five-piece band forges its own distinctive sound through intricate solos, offbeat time signatures, and multilayered rhythms. The result is a unique musical journey guided by Strickland’s commitment to openness, insight, and harmony through dissonance.
