The Chamber Music Society of Central Virginia presents “Just Kidding” with Jordan Bak, viola, Fitz Gary, viola, Grant Houston, violin, Mari Lee, violin, and James Wilson, cello. Comedy has been an essential part of dealing with the human condition for thousands of years, and for centuries, composers have given us musical humor to tickle our funny bones whether we're alone at home or at a concert. CMSCVA celebrates the lighter side of life in this concert of chamber music by Haydn, Heinrich von Biber, and the fictitious P. D. Q. Bach.
“A Classical Romance, a Story Recital” –a performance including works by Schubert, Granados, Chopin, Ravel, and Liszt by Lisa Ruth, pianist, who has developed her own personal stories in her interpretation of these classics ranging from the classical to the romantic to the modern impressionist periods.
