KMFA Classical 89.5 announces the February 2025 Offbeat Series performance of Oceans of Space: Celebrating 40 Years of Music with Chaski featuring Adrienne Inglis, Shana Norton with guest mezzo-soprano Cayla Cardiff. This Chaski 40th Anniversary event will play one-night only on February 7, 2025 in the Draylen Mason Music Studio at KMFA, 41 Navasota Street, Austin, 78702. Hailing from Austin, Chaski is a musical duo comprised of Adrienne Inglis and Shana Norton. Their music has spanned multiple generations reinventing the sound of a classical flute/harp duo with otherworldly compositions and performances since 1985.
Known for adapting compositions traditionally written for other instruments, Chaski creates original arrangements for the flute and harp while honoring the original work. Foundational to their 40-year history, Oceans of Space will incorporate works that reflect the natural world, women composers, spoken word, new music, and drawing from and blending different musical traditions.
The program will feature instruments many audiences have never heard before in live performance: instruments to include a wide array of panpipes, flutes, and whistles; an unusual harp; folkloric percussion instruments. The instruments, the narrative, along with the video and still imagery invite the audience into an appreciation of other cultures and the natural world.
General admission tickets are $30.00, student tickets are available for $15.00 and can be purchased at kmfa.org/offbeat.
Tickets include complimentary sips by Tito's Handmade Vodka, Milam & Greene Whiskey and wine by Georgetown Winery & Vineyards.
Guests are encouraged to arrive early at 6:00 p.m. for a pre-concert discussion with the artists.
