These very talented student musicians gave a recital at the Peninsula Center Library last Wednesday. The concerts are part of the Classical Music Series (arranged by the librarian Ashley Burdick) and are performed in the library foyer, which gives an open invitation for all passers by to stay and enjoy.
The audiance thought the musicians excellent and we all wanted to hear more - I'm hoping they will eventually record the program.
The program:
Sergei Rachmaninoff - Trio Eleguaque Op. 9 in G minor for piano, violin and violoncello (1893), 1st movement: Moderato
The program:Franz Liszt - Ballade #2 in b minor (1853), piano solo by Ms. Wietrzynska
Astor Piazzolla (Argentina) - Verano Porteno (1964), Otono Porteno (1969)*, Primavera Protena (1970)*, La Muerte del Angel (1960)*, *arrangement for piano trio by Jose Bragato (Piazzolla's violoncellist)

Kudos also go to Ashley Burdick the young librarian who organizes these concerts. She has had an amazing lineup of performers!
Kathy, thank you much for pointing out Ashley's contribution.
Great musical selection, I like the idea of the open invitation for such a beautiful repertoire.
It is an international trio ! They are so nice and I bet great musicians!
I'm envious here one more time...I would love to be there !The repertoire is amazing!Franz Liszt is very difficult to play, you must training a lot!
God bless you

They really are an international group. We have a series like this down in our historic district. It's such a good way for them to get experience performing for a supportive audience.
Yay! You're back. (Love, just love this kind of music.)
Quite the international trio!
I probably wooda gone if I knew about it b4hand!
I think it's such a good idea when libraries are able to bring the spoken word or other performance activities to the public. It seems to be something thats gaining momentum across are metropolis.
OUR not "are"...that one always gets me
Beautiful girls and apparently talented musicians!
Lucky you to have been able to attend. Libraries are such wonderful places and they are always one of the first to lose funding when governments cut budgets.
Seems an interesting and varied programme. It's invaluable to the life of a city to have events like these.
