The Bronx Arts Ensemble String Quartet and University of Mount Saint Vincent visual arts students will collaborate to create a unique musical and artistic experience in the Cahill Theater.

For the third concert of the 23-24 BAE Community Residency at UMSV, the BAE String Quartet will present a thematically and sonically diverse set of minimalist works by American composers. UMSV student artists will create a mixed media mural inspired by the music, which will serve as a backdrop for the musicians in the intimate setting of the Cahill Theatre.
