A CAVATINA Concert

On this night of the full moon, Tom Poster will treat us to his exquisitely sensitive playing of Debussy’s Clair de Lune.  This solo leads to a duo by Clara Schumann, a trio by Mendelssohn and a little known gem of a quartet by Puccini to the wonderful Franck Piano quintet.

In our ‘Chain Reaction’ we have invited Tom Poster back with his friends, all stellar soloists who are excited to explore the musical chemistry of the chamber music repertoire, both familiar and unexpected. The Kaleidoscope Chamber Music Collective has the specific and ardent commitment to celebrating diversity of all forms.
