LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Soper Reese Theatre Contemporary Chamber Series presents the string quintet, “Cosa Nostra Strings” on Sunday, Feb. 18, at 3 p.m.

This four-concert series is produced by Beth Aiken with generous support from Kirsten Olson and Aaron and Anne Bigalow.

Cosa Nostra Strings specializes in original hybrid crossover music ranging from acoustic heavy metal to power ballads and everything in between utilizing its unique instrumentation of cello, viola, violin, trombone, bass and percussion.

This five-piece powerhouse crew features conservatory trained classical musicians who bring a provocative, precise, punk-rock personality to a highly distinguished multi-style sound.

This group collaborates with many Grammy-nominated artists and has worked with Martin Luther, the Roots, P-Funk and the West Coast's most in-demand rap artists.
