Alumni Series: Passepartout Duo

Wednesday, March 8, 8:00pm

Purchase College, Music Building, Recital Hall

Free and open to the public

Passepartout Duo’s musicians are drawn together by their shared values of art, people, and travel. Pianist Nicoletta Favari and alumnus percussionist Christopher Salvito hail from Italy and America respectively, and are dedicated to organizing performances in both Europe and America with the hope of bridging the gap between cultural music ideologies and engaging a wider audience for contemporary classical music. Passionate about the piano-percussion instrumentation and the various configurations it can assume, the ensemble supplements its promotion of the current repertoire with a continual search for new composers and collaborations.
