From Mozart to Radiohead: Sybarite5

From Mozart to Radiohead, Sybarite5’s eclectic repertoire and dynamic performance style is turning heads throughout the music world: “…that impassioned playing, those hard-driving rhythms, the blissed-out faces of the mostly young audience…Genuine, spontaneous…excitement” (The Washington Post). 

The Quintet’s debut EP disc Disturb the Silence, featuring music by Radiohead and Piazzolla, plus two original works written for Sybarite5, was released in spring 2011 and quickly reached the top ten on the Billboard charts. 

The group’s follow-up CD, Everything in its Right Place, is a continuation of the Radiohead Remixed Project, and was released in November 2012 on the CAG Records label.

Sybarite5 plays on May 24 at Infinity Music Hall in Hartford at 7:00 pm.
