The Health Arts Society of Alberta presents a Library Lunchtime Concert with the Obsessions Quartet. Each piece on the program is deeply centered in a sense of place. The Quartet will be performing Sulkhan Tsintsadze’s delightful Miniatures for string quartet, which were inspired by traditional Georgian folk tunes and instruments, Northern Sunrise by Mari Alice Conrad and Towards Clarity by Geoff Li, both of which were written right here in Edmonton, as well some of their favourite Tangos by the Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla. Come and travel the world with us at this free, accessible concert!

We are thankful for all who were able to attend our recent Obsessions Octet concert at the Yardbird Suite and look forward to seeing many familiar faces at the library. This is a great concert to invite your friends and family as the price can’t get any better!

Warmly,

Obsessions Quartet

Obsessions Octet’s fourth offering
Well into their second decade, the experiment known as Obsessions Octet shows serious staying power, proving that melding a string quartet to a jazz quartet was an inspired idea.
