Sonata Series #4

The final Sonata Series Event of the season shares music of hope and despair in a mélange of styles. Ashley Frith, violist and CMW’s Director of Racial Equity and Belonging, shares Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson’s Lamentations: A Black/Folk Song Suite (originally written for cello) and her rendition of Rhiannon Giddens’ sorrowful and defiant  At the Purchaser’s Option.

The second half of the program features Resident Musician cellist Adrienne Taylor joined by pianist Andrei Baumann. This dynamic duo shares their rendition of the popular spiritual Deep River and for a finale, Claude Debussy’s fantastical and whimsical Cello Sonata.

Join us for this final event in our Sonata Series!
