Upcoming Concert: The Journey of the Strings: From Paganini to Piazzolla

January 28th, 3:00 PM EST

Violinist Anna Baksheeva and I invite you to join us on an exciting journey through time as we explore the progression of chamber music for strings! Starting with Nicolo Paganini, we will play classic works for violin and guitar as well as some arrangements that are staples of the genre–and we won’t stop until we get it to the 20th century! We will be narrating our journey along the way, introducing the audience to the repertoire and providing biographical information for the composers. This is sure to be an exciting afternoon for all music lovers!

Freiman Hall, University of Ottawa (75 Laurier Ave East, Ottawa Ontario)

Admission is $10 at the door.
