ABOUT 45P
On one level, we’re a music group.
A string trio, to be more precise - which is a pretty rare bird
in the chamber music world. Kind of like a three-wheeled
vehicle. Perhaps this reveals something about who we are,
but we find this quirkiness to be positive,
interesting, engaging … even compelling.
It brings us face-to-face with a slew of fascinating
composers and works that have been neglected,
forgotten, “undiscovered.” It compels us to produce our
own, fresh arrangements and conceptions of known
works (“putting new flowers in old pots” or something like
that). It also challenges us to stay open to a broad array of
new performing collaborations, partnerships, venues, and
projects.
So in this way maybe 45P is more than just a trio. It’s an idea .. an aspirational vision … a hope.
The hope that live music still has the power to move people,
irrespective of age, geography, social or political leanings,
everything.
That the world is filled with stirring beauty,
even beyond what’s widely accepted and “famous”.
And that with just a bit of care and watering, new flowers can indeed flourish and bloom in our midst
… even in old pots.
