The Criers Come to Rexburg

October 3, 7:30pm at the Barrus Concert Hall a small new orchestra will be performing.

A Far Cry was founded in 2007 by 17 young professional musicians.  They hail from Boston where they are the Chamber Orchestra in Residence at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.  The group is self-conducted and rotates leadership on and off stage.

Performances are full of personality and innovation.  “By expanding the boundaries of orchestral repertoire and experimenting with the ways music is prepared, performed, and experienced, A Far Cry has been embraced throughout the world with more than two hundred performances, three albums, a powerful presence on the internet, and a European debut tour planned for 2012.”

This group represents a new generation of classical musicians.  October’s performance will showcase A Far Cry’s energetic style and coordination with individuality.

Tickets are available at tickets.byui.edu starting September 10.  No children under six are allowed and event dress, i.e. skirts and slacks, is required.
