Rabia & Friends brings violinist Rabia Brooke together with a rotating ensemble of close musical collaborators for an evening that blends beloved classics with vibrant new voices. This season features the NLM Piano Trio—violinist Rabia Brooke, cellist Haddon Kay, and pianist Tamila Salimdjanova—performing the second appearance of Stacy Garrop’s Under the shimmering aspens, presented just after its world premiere. The program also includes the second U.S. performance of Smooth • Pluck • Whirl by Shawn Okpebholo, performed by Rabia on solo violin. Garrop and Okpebholo are among Chicago’s leading composers, and Rabia & Friends offers a rare opportunity to hear their music up close, alongside works by the great masters, in an intimate and inspiring setting.
