One Night Only: Don’t Miss…
ALMA NOVA in Concert @ Crowell
Wednesday, June 30th, 7:00 p.m.
The award-winning ensemble, Alma Nova, an innovative flute and guitar duo, will be presenting an eclectic program of chamber music in the Barth Community Room of Crowell Public Library, Wednesday June 30th at 7:00 p.m. Flutist Jessica Pierce and guitarist Almer Imamovic are both masters of their instruments, elevating the flute and guitar to the highest level of virtuosity and artistry. Their live performances are filled with energy and passion, creating a “…graceful, intuitively choreographed display of seamless connection.” (Fresno Beehive).
Alma Nova met in France while studying at the famed Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris. They continued their graduate work at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and the USC Thornton School of Music. Since then they have had the privilege to perform extensively throughout the world including recitals in Paris, London, Sarajevo, Stockholm, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Kansas City, and San Diego.
Alma Nova’s recordings have been described as “…pure musical pleasure” (Flute Focus Magazine, 2009) and have received much critical acclaim. Their newest release, After Hours, explores the music of Macedonia through thoughtful arrangements and original compositions by Mr. Imamovic and Ms. Pierce.
