Summary

The Shanghai Quartet is proud to present the Northeast premiere of David Del Tredici’s Bullycide, a new work written in memory of five gay teens who committed suicide, including Rutgers student Tyler Clementi. With elements that revolve around the number “5”, the piece serves as a passionate tribute to five young men who left too soon and to the lives that might have been.
