The violinists of BLACK MARBLE are the co-directors of the internationally acclaimed baroque ensemble, REBEL, with whom they record and concertize extensively in the U.S. and abroad. The name Black Marble derives from the English translation of their last names: Schwarz (German, for black) and Marmer (Dutch, for marble). The duo has performed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Kendal-on-Hudson Concert Series, Downtown Music at Grace (White Plains), Harvard Business School Concert Series, Cape Cod Early Music Festival and Midtown Concerts in New York City. The ensemble aims to explore the rich, virtuosic and rarely performed repertoire written for two violins by Leclair, Telemann, Mozart, Reger, Spohr and Bartok, amongst others, on instruments and bows appropriate to their respective periods. The husband and wife team perform on equally well-matched Stainer violins dated 1660 and 1668, respectively.
This unique performance will be complemented with insightful, humorous and educational commentaries by Schwarz and Marmer.

FRI, May 19 from 8-9pm; $15 at Gallery 982 (982 Main St, 2nd floor, Peekskill, NY)
