CROSS ISLAND in Concert at Port Washington Public Library

CROSS ISLAND - my collaboration with clarinetist Joseph Rutkowski and pianist Eleanor Abrams Zayas is pleased to share music we love at the Port Washington Public Library on Thursday, July 9 at 2:00 pm.
CROSS ISLAND - Clarinetist Joseph Rutkowski, cellist Suzanne Mueller, and pianist Elinor Abrams Zayas - will be presenting a concert seamlessly blending beloved favorites and exciting discoveries spanning centuries, styles, and cultures:
The concert opens with Mendelssohn's lovely Song without Words, Op. 38; nr. 2 in C Minor.
Next is a classical favorite: Movement 1, Allegro, from Mozart's "Kegelstatt Trio" (with the viola part transcribed for cello)
Burt Bacharach's Anyone Who Had a Heart follows, (in an arrangement prepared for us by Mark McCarron; preceded by a special Bacharach "Name That Tune" led by Joe) .
Ellie and Joe then share 2 Bagatelles by Gerald Finzi - the lyrical Forlana and the sprightly Fughetta.
Then Suzanne and Joe have some fun with Calypso Serenade, Benny’s Gig No. 6, by Long Island's own Morton Gould, and David Burndrett 's Blues Duet.
Suzanne and Ellie then team up for the serene yet exuberant First Ride, by Eugene Friesen and Paul Hally.
The trio then reunites for Max Bruch's Nachtgesang - a sumptuous nocturne (with the cello again taking the role originally played by viola, in a transcription by the composer).
Then, Suzanne and Ellie share the opening Largo and the Menuetto~Allegro from Luigi Boccherini 's Sonata No. 2 in G Major.
The trio then presents Cole Porter 's darkly beautiful So in Love, in an arrangement for CROSS ISLAND by Josh Redman.
The concert closes with Mischievous Spirits, Masks No. 2, an exhilarating work by Venezuelan composer Elisenda Fabregas.
Note: This is not a part of the library's programming and will not be posted on their website. All are welcome and no registration is required. We'd appreciate it if you'd let us know if you're planning to attend.
