The three musicians met while teaching at the Eastern Mediterranean University on Cyprus in 2002, where they have created an annual visiting composer series to introduce Middle Eastern audiences to Western music. Since that time they have commissioned over a dozen compositions, and established a new music festival called “soundSCAPE” in Pavia, Italy. In Bisbee they will perform works by Felix Mendelssohn and Astor Piazzola, as well as a work composed for them called “Falling on Lobsters in the Dark” and selections from “Aires de Sefarad”, a group of 46 Spanish songs for violin and guitar. The recording of this compositions was called “one of the most gorgeous releases of the year” by the Cincinnati Enquirer.
