Eustasio Rosales String Quartet - III. Scherzando

You are among the first living people to hear the rediscovered music of Eustasio Rosales, known as “Chicago’s first Hispanic composer"! Eustasio (1875-1934) was a Colombian immigrant who came to Chicago seeking a better life. His music was celebrated in his lifetime, including in performances by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. After his death, though, his music has languished in storage in his grand-daughter’s basement in Oak Park, IL. So, together on a quest with Rosales’s great-grandson Arlen Parsa and Mulati Ensemble and Ortegon School of Music founder Johanna Ortegon, we dusted off the boxes of scores in the basement, and prepared to share some of the first performances of his string quartet, violin sonata, serenade for violin and piano, and two English language songs, sung by guest artist Mulati Ensemble soprano Carolina Gomez! This performance features Jennifer Leckie and Rasa Mahmoudian, violins; Jay Pike, viola; and Tom Clowes, cello; with Aidan Kranz, videography; Miyu Morita, sound; and was filmed at the First Unitarian Church of Chicago, who graciously hosted this project.
