Czech Mates - Pleasanton Chamber Players

SEE EVENT DETAILS
The esteemed locally-based Pleasanton Chamber Players return to the intimate Firehouse Arts Center in Pleasanton on Sunday, May 19, at 2:00 p.m. With the theme "Czech Mates," the concert features a luscious program of classical chamber music from the Czech Republic: Three Madrigals by Bohuslav Martinu; Four Pieces for Violin and Piano Op. 17 by Josef Suk; Silent Woods Op. 94 by Antonin Dvorak; String Quartet "Kreutzer Sonata" by Leos Janacek; and the mighty Piano Quintet Op. 81 by Dvorak.

Rich with deep Slavic influences, the pieces promise to be both virtuosic and meaty. The performers for this concert are up to the task, as all are top-tier soloists and chamber musicians from the TriValley and the greater Bay Area: Nigel Armstrong (violin), Rochelle Nguyen (violin), Elbert Tsai (violin), Christina Simpson (viola), James Jaffe (cello), Brady Anderson (cello), Tamirzhan Yerzhanov (piano).

This concert marks the second season at the Firehouse for current PCP director Brady Anderson. Anderson is a founding member of the Alden Trio, and performs chamber music extensively around the world, in addition to his teaching and coaching roles.
