A note from Artistic Director and violinist Stephanie Chase:
Please join us for a concert that explores new and recently-discovered music composed between 1800 and 2012. We will feature the premiere of “At last, to be identified!” – with poetry by Emily Dickinson in a new chamber music setting by the American composer Richard Pearson Thomas (born 1957) – along with works by Mendelssohn and Paganini that were first published in 1953 and 2009, respectively. The Piano Trio No. 2 by Camille Saint-Saëns concludes the program and is a work that I “discovered” only last year and want to share with you. I will be joined by cellist James Wilson, pianist Todd Crow, and soprano Hope Hudson.
The concert will begin at approximately 8:15 pm. Admission is at the door, cash or check only. Please note that the doors open at 7:15 pm.
Pre-concert talk at 7:30 by Stewart Pollens (included in concert admission): "Casino Paganini"
