What’s On
Vetta Chamber Music Recital
After the resounding success of violin soloist, Gregory Lewis, and his performance of Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in D Major, the SSO is pleased to present Vancouver-based Vetta Chamber Music on Saturday, Aug. 17, 3 p.m., at the air-conditioned Comox United Church, 250 Beach Dr, Comox. Concertgoers will also have an opportunity to meet with the musicians over light refreshments.
Vetta is well known to B.C. chamber music audiences, and for this concert, Joan Blackman (violin), Jane Hayes (piano) and Zoltan Rozsnyai (cello) will perform a piano trio program of Arno Babajanian’s haunting and powerful Piano Trio in F sharp minor and Johannes Brahms’ tender and romantic Piano Trio No. 1 in B major Opus 8.
The musicians for this concert have performed solo and ensemble work with the Vancouver Symphony, Victoria Symphony, CBC Radio Orchestra, Purcell String Quartet, Canadian Opera Company and National Ballet Orchestra, to name a few. Pianist, Jane Hayes, is an acclaimed recording artist and has over 20 CDs available with EMI, CBC-Musica Viva and Fanfare.
Please join us for an unforgettable summer afternoon event that offers “music from the heart”.
