Widener University will host the second of three free concerts as part of the Widener University Recital Series on its Main Campus in Chester, PA. 

​

Admission is free and open to the public. 

​

Sunday, January 22nd, 2017. The concert starts at 3:00pm in the Kapelski Recital Hall, located on the corner of 14th and Walnut Street. 

​

The group’s program, Relâche, the Sublime and Ridiculous, features commissioned music from award-winning American composer Mark Hagerty and British composer Gavin Bryars. In addition, there will be a screening of the recently discovered complete version of Max Linder's 1921 silent comedy, Be My Wife. During the screening, Relâche will perform a live musical accompaniment to premiere a newly expanded score by Chris McGlumphy.

​

Known for their unique sound and innovative music, Relâche musicians play a variety of instruments - the flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, viola, keyboard, bass and percussion - to capture both the sublime and the ridiculous in a melding of Western classical traditions with jazz, rock, electronica, world music and more.
