A WORLD WITHOUT FEAR - Feathery Quartet (Lena Bloch, Russ Lossing, Cameron Brown, Billy Mintz) is sponsored by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC). Contributors: Brooklyn Arts Council New York City Department of Cultural Affairs -------------------------- The suite of original compositions, linked together by the theme of longing for peace for humanity, for living on this planet without fear of the Other, of aggression, of war, of loss of the loved ones. A “war“ not only as a conventional war with weapons - but also as a state of war within us, state of fear which feeds prejudice, suspicion and hostility. Feathery Quartet is bringing together Eastern and Western impressions and cultural influences in this world, creating poems in sound where East and West embrace. Dan Morgenstern: “Most impressive quartet – or rather, four equals perfectly attuned to each other. “Collective” is the key word here, for this is truly musical togetherness, creating a sound all its own”. Downbeat Magazine describes it: “Rippling energy and sublimely weightless interplay“.
