HYDE PARK — The Spektral Quartet is playing a selection of tangos and classical works to combat a forecast that predicts snow before the Saturday performance.
The ensemble-in-residence at the University of Chicago will perform an 8 p.m. show in the penthouse at the Logan Center for the Arts, 915 E. 60th St.
Tickets are $10, and free for University of Chicago students with a school ID.
The quartet has dubbed the show the “snowpocalypse antidote,” and will perform a new tango arrangement by Julien Labro and short works by Stephen Gorbos and Chris Fisher-Lochhead.
Chicago-based composer David Remnick will also premiere his “The Ancestral Mousetrap” composition, which includes poems by Russell Edson, with the ensemble.
