Halcyon Quartet w/ Alisa Amador

October 15, 7pm

Halcyon String Quartet has built a reputation in Midcoast Maine as something more than a chamber ensemble — a collective of musicians, filmmakers, and storytellers whose performances often weave together live music, animation, and narrative into ambitious multimedia experiences. This is not that. This is their fourth appearance at Tenderwild, and what they’re bringing is the thing at the center of everything else they do: four instruments in a room, playing music. Josie Davis, Sophie Davis, Colin Wheatley, and Julia Henderson have spent years earning the attention of audiences across Maine. This time they’re joined by Luke Fatora — steps out from behind the production gear and picks up his violin. Five players, no film, no narration, no production. Chamber music in a barn, unadorned beauty.

Alisa Amador

Praised by NPR’s Bob Boilen as a “powerful voice whose tender performance commands attention and fosters connection,” Alisa Amador made history in 2022 with the first-ever Spanish language song to win the prestigious Tiny Desk Contest. Now, the bilingual singer/songwriter is formally introducing herself with her stunning full-length debut, Multitudes. Recorded with co-producers Tyler Chester and Daniel Radin, the album is a bold, captivating self-portrait, one that serves not only as a testament to how far Amador has come (she’s earned dates with everyone from Hozier and Brandi Carlile to Lake Street Dive and Maggie Rogers) but also as a celebration of where she comes from (her roots span Puerto Rico, New Mexico, Argentina, and New England).
