Sound Series: Instruments of Happiness Guitar Quartet

Saturday, March 30, 2019, 8 p.m.

Four men in all black stand in a row while looking off camera and smiling. Each of them hold electric guitars by the neck.

Instruments of Happiness is a electric guitar ensemble created by composer/guitarist Tim Brady. This ambitious project is dedicated to the performance of new music and includes a quartet, a professional orchestra of twenty guitarists and a 100-strong community-focused ensemble. “Electric guitarists Tim Brady, Gary Schwartz, Michel Héroux and Antoine Berthiaume give us tour de force performances, filled with precision, a flair for color, a total world of electric sounds that realize possibilities one might have dreamed about but rarely if ever experienced.” – Grego Appelgate Edwards, Gappelgate Classical-Modern Reviews.

Co-presented with Music on the Edge series of the University of Pittsburgh Department of Music.
