Welcome to the Park Church Music at Midday concert series. All concerts begin at 12:15pm. On March 18, our guests are the Castalia Quartet: Jenna Buchner, violin; Leslie Van Becker, viola; Alicia Eppinga, cello; and Emily Grabinski, piano. The program features the work of Dora Pejacevic (1885-1923), Claire Cowan (1983-), and Louise Herrite-Viardot (1841-1918).
Castalia Quartet is beginning its 15th year of exploring music by Women Composers. The name Castalia was taken from a fountain on Mount Parnassus, near Delphi, which was sacred to Apollo and the Muses. It supposedly gave inspiration to those who drank the waters. We thought it a fitting title for our, and our listeners’, enrichment and enjoyment of the many chamber and solo works we have performed over the years.
Lunch is $7.00 per person and is served from 11:15-1:15. Parking is free in the Park Church lot for concert guests when there are spaces available. Groups are welcome but, to ensure the best experience, please let us know you are coming.
