A program titled “The Melodious Mystery of Math in Music” will be
presented by a string quartet from the local Strings & Things network of
musicians on Sunday, November 2nd at 5:00 PM. The performance will be
held at Urbanna Baptist Church and is open to the public. The quartet
will demonstrate the ways that numerical concepts like intervals,
rhythms, and more, play an important part in the music we love listening
to. The concert will include a mix of classical, pop, ballads, and Jazz;
all with a mathematical twist. Strings & Things is a network of between
20 and 25 professionally trained musicians in coastal and central
Virginia. Members typically play for weddings, receptions, parties, and
performances in duet, trio, or quartet combinations. The membership
represents a variety of instrumentation, including violin, viola, cello, flute, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, and keyboard. Additional information is available at www,stringsandthings.org.
