Lot of Strings Festival at the Morris Museum raises the temperature with an evening of remarkable music from Mexico. Modernism in Mexico explores string quartets by some of Mexico s most important 20th century composers: Manuel Ponce, Silvestre Revueltas, and Carlos Chávez. Ponce was Mexico s leading classical musician, and this performance of his well-known song Estrellita is a new arrangement for string quartet. Carlos Chávez was his student and heir apparent, touring extensively as a conductor and producing an impressive body of compositions.
