The all-female string quartet ATLYS performed their newly released album “Sonnenberg Suite” at Nichols Concert Hall on Sunday.
ATLYS consists of twin sisters, violinist Sabrina Tabby (Bienen M.M. ’16) and cellist Genevieve Tabby (Bienen M.M. ’15), violinist Jinty McTavish and violist Kayla Cabrera. “Sonnenberg Suite” was composed by Ari Fisher, inspired by the story behind New York’s Sonnenberg Gardens.
The group expanded the presentation of their album for the wider Artemis Chamber Orchestra, which further embellishes the piece, Sabrina Tabby said.
“Not only is (“Sonnenberg Suite”) totally new music, but this is in the style of Tchaikovsky and Borodin and any romantic composer you can think of,” Genevieve Tabby said.
ATLYS has amassed many accolades since its formation in 2016. Even so, the group continues to try new styles and take on different challenges within the world of music.
