Colors of Creation

This Winter time concert, Colors of Creation features a number of incredible artists and performers, starting with the violists from the studio of Dr. Katrin Meidell playing York Bowen’s fiendishly difficult Viola Quartet, a fabulous piece featuring the rich tone of our viola section. Next, the award winning Schwob Percussion Ensemble, under the direction of Dr. Paul Vaillancourt will perform Michael Osterle’s California, a minimalist work capturing the colors of the West Coast, but with beautiful sounds drawn from numerous instruments. It’s simply a breathtaking piece! The program will finish with graduate pianist Cristina Loscovuto playing Alban Berg’s Piano Sonata, Op. 1, a work that put Berg on the map as a composer of international stature and a romantic utterance. This is a piece full of virtuosic technique and lilting melodies. Visual designs will be done by our gifted Professor of Dance, Amy Mutarelli Taylor.

Reception at 5 pm with wine and cheese, and 45-minute concert at 5:37pm!
