"Chamber Music in the Pandemic"

“Chamber Music in the Pandemic”

Artists: Amanda Bekeny, trumpet; Gabriel Pique, saxophone; Leah Frank, piano; Lembi Veskimets, viola; and Daniel McKelway, clarinet

Due to the current coronavirus pandemic, we have had to postpone our April 20 concert and move it to Monday, May 18 at 7:15 pm. Also due to the pandemic, our original artists are unable to perform this concert. Instead, Rocky River Chamber Music Society and West Shore Unitarian Universalist Church will collaborate in presenting five local artists, including two members of The Cleveland Orchestra, Cleveland Freelancers, and faculty members from Baldwin Wallace University. The music to be performed will include works by Max Bruch, Paul Creston, Henry Purcell, Joseph Turrin, and Vittorio Monti.

This concert on May 18 at 7:15 pm will be a live streamed event, and there will be two ways to access it (in Facebook and YouTube) on the evening of the concert:

1.) https://facebook.com/WestShoreUU

2.) https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCjwSxK8LLlIKw6LeMviMK7g

The Rocky River Chamber Music Society is committed to providing this concert of classical music to our loyal Northeast Ohio audience via streaming. Unlike all of our past concerts there will be no audience. Instead, you will be able to enjoy this concert at home in the comfort of a favorite armchair. Please keep checking Facebook, Twitter, and our website for further information. If you have additional questions you can email us at info@rrcms.org. If you wish to make a contribution, please click the Donations Tab on the home page of our website, rrcms.org.

We look forward to the return of normal times, recognizing that may be a while. Meanwhile, the Rocky River Chamber Music Society remains firmly dedicated to our policy of presenting concerts to Northeast Ohio audiences at no admission charge. All are welcome.
