Quartet for the End of Time Performances

As we commemorate the events that led to CCC’s creation twenty years ago this month, we are excited to partner with professors from USU’s Caine College of the Arts in their performances of Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time. This quartet was written and premiered 80 years ago in January 1941 in a prisoner of war camp, and it is a powerful work that speaks eloquently about the experience of transcendent hope in the midst of incredible loss and injustice that seems to parallel the trials that many are going through currently.

Violinist Rebecca McFaul, cellist Heather Smith, clarinetist Nicholas Morrison, and pianist Cahill Smith will perform the work twice, free of charge. Masking is encouraged for audience members.
