Quelque Chose is “something” distinctive – an ensemble dedicated to performing familiar works for violin, horn, and piano, exploring the unfamiliar by-ways of the repertoire, and presenting arrangements of music by American composers. Founded by public radio personality Greg Kostraba in 2007, Quelque Chose weaves “their distinctive sounds to create a shimmering musical fabric.” (Toledo Blade)
The members of Quelque Chose, veterans of music festivals and performance venues across the country, blend their individual musical idioms to create concerts hailed as “lively and enlightening” by the Toledo Blade. The ensemble has performed at the Ohio State University-Lima campus, the Bluffton University Artist Series, the inaugural Defiance Community Cultural Council series, the Musical Arts Series at Firelands, Chamber Music Toledo’s Artist Series, and the Tippecanoe Chamber Music Series in Lafayette, Indiana. Quelque Chose has also performed live on WGTE-FM in Toledo. Kickshaw Records is releasing the trio’s debut recording this season, thanks in part to funding from the Indiana Arts Commission.
Named after the French word for “something,” Quelque Chose is something worth hearing!
