THE LISTENING LOUNGE SERIES

The Listening Lounge Series is a casual cabaret-style experience that brings a variety of musical genres to hungry, curious ears. Gather around a table to meet new people or connect with old friends, enjoy a small plate of nibbles and your favorite beverage to start the weekend off right.

ABOUT THE SHOW

Sweetening up the Listening Lounge, Quartetto Gelato performs their eclectic, multi-instrumental virtuoso showpieces, romantic ballads, and blazing gypsy tunes that have captivated audiences world-wide. From their beginnings as NPR’s “Debut Artist of the Year,” Quartetto Gelato has gone on to perform in some of the world's most prestigious venues – from New York to Tokyo, London to Hong Kong.

The quartet - Colin Maier (oboe, vocals, musical saw), Kirk Starkey (cello), Konstantin Popović (violin) Matti Pulkki (accordion) - combine a theatrical stage presence and relaxed humour to create an energetic rapport with audiences with an exotic repertoire that spans the globe, including well-known classical masterworks, energetic tangos, gypsy and klezmer songs.

Be enchanted by musical virtuosity, artistic passion and humour.

“Light programming, like comedy, is serious business. Quartetto Gelato has the stuff. Dry humor and occasional clowning are part of the quartet’s arsenal, yet first, it meets the requisite virtues of skilled music-making. Its pleasure-giving is consistent.” - Los Angeles Times
