Decoda musicians will perform chamber works by Paul Cortez, a composer currently incarcerated at Sing Sing Correctional Facility. Paul writes deeply-felt chamber music inspired by his experience of incarceration, the natural world, and his faith. This concert features a cross-section of Paul's creative work, including pieces for string quartet, piano quintet, and excerpts from his solo cello suite.

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council
