The duo makes classical music accessible.
Friday, Oct. 23, Overture Center's Capitol Theater, 8 pm
Classical musicians Aleksey Igudesman (violin) and Hyung-ki Joo (piano) know how to have a good time (pictured above). And, as part of the Overture Center season, they will share some of those good times with us in And Now Mozart. The show is a series of comedy skits that combine music of classical composers like Bach, Chopin and maybe Mozart with rap, heavy metal and other musical forms. Luminaries like Emanuel Ax and Gidon Kremer have participated in the duo’s hysterical mash-ups.
