SUMMARY:Performance:Takács Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Since their UMS debut in 1984\, the Takács Quartet has performed in Ann Arbor more than two dozen times\, and their nearly annual appearances are always a highlight of the Chamber Arts Series. This year\, the cherished ensemble celebrates its 50th anniversary with a program that pairs Haydn and Beethoven\, two innovators of the string quartet form\, with Benjamin Britten’s rarely-performed String Quartet No. 2. Britten composed the quartet in 1945\, and it premiered in 1945 on the 250th anniversary of the death of Henry Purcell\, a composer he revered above all others. “Classical music doesn’t get much more life-enhancing than this.” (The Guardian\, London)\n\nPROGRAM\nJoseph Haydn String Quartet in C Major\, Op. 54\, No. 2\nBenjamin Britten String Quartet No. 2 in C Major\, Op. 36\nLudwig van Beethoven String Quartet No. 16 in F Major\, Op. 135

SUMMARY:Performance:Ellis Paul
DESCRIPTION:\"Finds light in telling stories through music\" —Albuquerque Journal\n\nEllis Paul doesn’t just write songs\; he’s a guitar-carrying reporter who covers the human condition and details the hopes\, loves\, losses of those he observes\, turning their stories into luminous pieces of music that get under your skin and into your bloodstream. \n\nBorn and raised in Maine\, Paul attended Boston College on a track scholarship and in the evenings became a fixture on the city’s open mic circuit. After winning a Boston Acoustic Underground songwriter competition\, he caught the ear of folk luminary Bill Morrissey\, who produced his indie album Say Something in 1993. This led to a seven album contract with Rounder Records. His songs have appeared in several blockbuster films (Me\, Myself\, and Irene\; Shallow Hal\, Hall Pass) and have been covered by award winning country artists (Sugarland\, Kristian Bush\, Jack Ingram). Through a steady succession of albums of his own – a remarkable 23 releases so far – and a constant touring presence around the world\, Paul’s audience has grown into a loyal legion of fans.\n.
