Missing Piece is south side Chicago-based musical duo, violinist Dan Galat and cellist Kelly Quesada, who endeavor to commission new musical works and works from other artistic disciplines on themes that inspire others to connect with their community, care for our environment, listen deeply to ourselves and others, and speak out against injustice. Missing Piece has commissioned eight new works for their ensemble, including standard notation, text and graphic scores, poetry, movement, and improvisation. Missing Piece has premiered an additional four new works for piano trio and one work for piano quartet. Missing Piece has presented their work in Chicago, New Orleans, Anchorage, Ohio, and Florida
