DuselForty58 came together with the goal of sharing the diverse variety and genres of music the members revere and love. Ranging from Western European classical music to jazz, DuselForty58 presents transcriptions, arrangements, and original music written by composers as far back as Bach to those currently living today. By actively commissioning new works, the ensemble aims to include works from our time to audience members at each concert.
The core ensemble of DuselForty58 consists of a string quartet and a saxophone. With an extension of up to eight musicians (core ensemble plus piano, drum set, and bass) the presentation of a broad range of repertoire would be possible to allow the ensemble to work flexibly for a wide audience base.
The musicians of DuselForty58 Members have active careers as performers, educators and composers. They hold music performance degrees and received musical educations from Yale University, University of Southern California, University of California Los Angeles, Colburn School, Berklee College of Music, and the University of the Phillipines.
“Bach’s music gives me faith that there is some sort of cosmic harmony underlying the chaos of existence. It is amazing that Bach can capture both musical perfection and human warmth in his works.” – Leila Nunez-Fredell, DuselForty58 member on J.S. Bach
