MONTAGE Music Society s STARRY NIGHT PROJECT is a multi-disciplinary initiative that features music of prominent, living American composers written exclusively about works of visual art. The featured paintings belong to notable art collections, including New York s Museum of Modern Art, Boston s Museum of Fine Arts and The Art Institute of Chicago. A key component of the project is the connection of ear to eye, eye to ear; thereby encouraging the audience to observe, notice and gainmore appreciation and understanding for the respective art forms. Forging connections between art forms encourages active listening and observation and stimulates fresh, new insights into the musical and visual creative processes. Violinist Sarita Uranovsky, cellist Marc Moskovitz, violist Stephen Dyball, clarinetist Bruce Creditor and pianist Debra Ayers form the MONTAGE MUSIC SOCIETY s five-member roster. This Boston-based ensemble displays a passion for combining a healthy mix of acknowledged masterpieces with exciting music of today. MONTAGE seeks to reestablish the ideals of the Society for Private Musical Performances, an organization founded in Vienna in 1918 to promote new works of music within the most nurturing environment possible.Dedicated to reaching a diverse public, MONTAGE is equally committed to performances in homes, concert halls and for underserved audiences.
