The Sphinx Virtuosi, together with the Catalyst Quartet, is a chamber orchestra dedicated to diversity in music, performing well-known repertoire together with works by African-American and Latinx composers. Experience this year’s annual performance at the New World Center!

The Sphinx Virtuosi 2018 tour will illuminate works by composers from communities searching for harmony and separated by time, distance, hardship and conflict, as it seeks to share its inspiration from the diverse voices that remind us of empathy and our common humanity. The tour will include works by Emmy nominated Syrian-American composer Kareem Roustom, Dmitri Shostakovich, Gaspar Cassadó, and features a newly commissioned work by Grammy Award-winning jazz trumpeter and composer, Terence Blanchard.

Please note this performance does not include the NWS Fellows.
