Saturday, November 22, 7pm $25 ($22 Members)

ETHEL, the "string quartet that sometimes thinks it's a rock band," makes its first appearance in Hudson with a program entitled Grace, honoring the 20th anniversary of the release of Jeff Buckley's glorious and, tragically, only completed album. The centerpiece of the program is ETHEL's adaptation of Ennio Morricone's moving score to the 1986 film, The Mission. The Italian composer, renowned for his work on "spaghetti western" films such as The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and classics like Cinema Paradiso, has been one of the defining influences on music for film for the last 40 years. Known for its focus on contemporary music, ETHEL rounds out this redemptive evening of music with works by Mary Ellen Chiles (USA), Marcelo Zarvos (Brazil), and Carlo Mombelli (South Africa), along with original music composed by members of the quartet.
