Mozart And Schumann On Sunday’s

Program For Walden Chamber Players

Celebrating their tenth season, Walden Chamber Players will continue a tour of adventuresome programming with a performance on Sunday, March 11, at 3 pm, Edmond Town Hall.

The musicians — Irina Muresanu on violin, Christof Huebner on viola, Ashima Scripp on cello, and Jonathan Bass on piano — will stay overnight and work with Newtown High School students in the second master class this year’s School Outreach Programs on the morning following the concert.

Walden Chamber Players, established in 1996, are all present and former members of such prestigious organizations as Boston Symphony Orchestra, Vienna Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, and others. Members perform at leading festivals throughout the United States and abroad, and are on the faculty of many of New England’s premier musical teaching institutions, such as the New England Conservatory, Boston University, and Boston Conservatory of Music.

The program will include works of Mozart, Schumann, and Devienne.

For Mozart’s Flute Quartet in A Major, K.298, the flautist will be Marianne Gedigian of Boston Symphony Orchestra.

An informal reception to meet and chat with the artists will be held after the concert in the town hall lobby.

At the box office tickets for adults are $18, and those for seniors over age 65 are $16. Children, when accompanied by a ticket-holding adult, are welcomed for free, as are the music students from Newtown High School. The box office opens one hour before concert time.

Tickets can also be purchased in advance, and reservations are strongly recommended.

There is plenty of free parking behind Edmond Town Hall.  The facility is handicap accessible.
