The Bishop and Murray Violin Duo

April 1, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Emerging young classical violinists Hannah Murray and Emily Bishop perform a riveting performance of Hungarian composer Bela Bartok’s Duets, followed by both an energetic and emotional exploration of 21st century duets from American Composers Peter Schickele and Maria Newman. Schickele’s works have given him “a leading role in the ever-more-prominent school of American composers who unselfconsciously blend all levels of American music” (John Rockwell, The New York Times). Maria Newman, whose scintillating and highly discussed works have made her a visible symbol in modern classical music, is an award-winning composer, violinist, violist and pianist.

Performed in one of downtown Bentonville’s modern restored homes, this intimate venue highlights the contributions of modern American life and music.

All proceeds from the sale of tickets directly benefit Help One Now. The ticket price is equivalent to one month’s sponsorship cost for an orphaned child in Zimbabwe. The cost of sponsorship provides food, clothing, school, and health care for the children living in Musha WeVava children’s home.
