Lamont faculty cellist Kevin McFarland is joined by collaborators Damien Krzyzek, Nicholas Davies, Forrest Howell, and Reed Puleo for a program that spans centuries, ranging from medieval ars subtilior to cutting-edge contemporary works, with favorites by Bach and Brahms in between. Drawing parallels to this historical arc, the recital uses the Fool's Journey as a storytelling framework, inviting audiences to reflect on the rewards of embracing new experiences, taking risks, and finding meaningful connections through music.With:Damien Krzyzek, pianoNicholas Davies, clarinetForrest Howell, pianoReed Puleo, percussionFor ticket questions, please contact the Newman Center Box Office at 303-871-7720.For all other Lamont questions, please call 303-871-6400.We offermultiple accessibility services, which you can view here (https://liberalarts.du.edu/lamont/performances-events).Patrons seeking accommodations can call (303) 871-7720.
