Columbia University: Matt Haimovitz Plays Bach Around Campus

October 22, 2015

Bringing Bach to unexpected places is nothing new for Matt Haimovitz. In Manhattan alone, his performances have taken him from the High Line to Carnegie Hall to CBGB. Now, through a special partnership with Miller Theatre, he will animate the Columbia campus with spontaneous performances combining the music of Bach with new overtures by living composers.
These new works will be presented alongside the complete cello suites of Bach over the course of a two-night concert series at Miller Theatre. Discover how composers from a variety of backgrounds and traditions connect with these timeless works.
