This week, the Catalyst Quartet guides us through musical innovations from Haydn to today

On this episode, the Catalyst Quartet guides us through musical innovations. We’ll start with the creator of the string quartet, Joseph Haydn, and finish with 11 brand new works by living composers, all performed at a memorable concert of the 2022 Grand Canyon Music Festival. Among these new voices are two Pulitzer Prize winners, several Grammy Award winners, and one steel pan drum virtuoso.
