Blending the shimmering colors of flute and harp, flutist Anna Urrey and harpist Kristi Shade present a program that moves across centuries and styles. A versatile soloist and chamber musician, Urrey has appeared at venues including Carnegie Hall, David Geffen Hall, Le Poisson Rouge, and National Sawdust, and performs regularly with ensembles such as the International Contemporary Ensemble, The Knights, and the American Symphony Orchestra. She is joined by harpist Kristi Shade, Principal Harpist of the Chamber Orchestra of New York, whose career spans orchestral, chamber, Broadway, and contemporary performance. A sought-after collaborator, Shade has appeared with artists ranging from Andrea Bocelli and John Legend to Florence + The Machine, while championing new music through acclaimed chamber ensembles and commissions. Together, they create an intimate and richly textured dialogue between two of the most coloristic instruments in the chamber repertoire.
