Exploring the program for our upcoming N4NConcerts this week and next...

First, just a reminder:                      
Our next Notes for Nourishment program is happening on THREE different dates, in THREE different venues, and it's coming up SOON! ....it's a one-hour, family-friendly program, and all three venues are open to the public, with donations requested. Here are the dates, times and locations:

  • SATURDAY Jan 26 (this Saturday) at 1:30pm sharp in St Joseph Basilica, 1109 Chestnut St, Alameda   
  • SATURDAY Feb 2, on a Groupmuse house concert in a SF neighborhood, gathering at2:45pm.   See  https://www.groupmuse.com/events/7789-felix-the-cat-tree-oh-my            A space reservation is required/requested.  Address and info is on the link above. 
  • SUNDAY Feb 3, at 4pm in the Mission Dolores Basilica16th St, San Francisco (walkable from 16th St & Mission BART station)
SO - if you are wondering what the PROGRAM will be, take a peek:
We are breaking this one-hour program into two completely separate halves, with Part 1 being a delicious smorgasbord of short musical bon-bons or appetizers, from the 19th and 20th centuries, with two different "tango-like" works being the fun bookend pieces for that half. And Part 2 of the program will share all four movements of the gigantic and ever-popular Mendelssohn Piano Trio No2 in c minor. So unless we change the order at last minute, it looks like this:

Part 1 
Piazzolla  "Oblivion" arranged for violin, cello and piano by Jose Bragato
Liszt  "Liebestraume" for piano solo, leading into:
Liszt  "Benedictus" for solo violin (with piano four-hands accompaniment arr.by Michael Touchi)
Schumann    "Traumerei"  arranged for cello and piano by Lothar Lechner
Gardel  "Por Una Cabeza" transcribed & arranged for piano trio by Gabriel Beistline
                        ----------------------------------
Part 2
Mendelssohn  Piano Trio No.2 in c minor Op. 66 in four movements:
Allegro energico e con fuoco
Andante espressivo
Scherzo: Molto allegro quasi presto
Finale: Allegro appassionato

We hope you are as excited about that program as we are! See you soon.....
