Five musicians. Three concerts. Two days. One borough. The Quintet of the Americas will perform the Crystal Winter series in Jackson Heights, East Elmhurst and Bayside on January 15 and 16. The multi-faceted group will play seasonal songs from around the world in front of projected images of crystals, snowflakes, winter scenes and Vincent Van Gogh’s painting Starry Night. Expect Van Gogh-inspired jam sessions and audience members jumping the stage to join in with bells, jingling keys and water glasses. The band will also do golden oldies such as Sammy Cahn’s “Let It Snow” and “Silver Bells,” an arrangement of Sergie Prokofiev’s Troika from Lt. Kije Suite.
