This concert, co-presented with the Curtis Institute of Music, is the first of two concerts in a special project of the Dolce Suono Chamber Music Concert Series. "Samuel Barber at 100: The Composers and His World" is Dolce Suono's celebration of the great American composer's centennial. The concert features Barber's Summer Music and Capricorn Concerto along with works by Menotti, Rorem, Higdon, and Ludwig. Dolce Suono ensemble musicians will perform: Mimi Stillman, flute and alto flute; Geoffrey Deemer, oboe; Samuel Caviezel, clarinet; Paul Demers, clarinet and bass clarinet; Michelle Rosen, bassoon; Shelley Showers, French horn; Jeffrey Curnow, trumpet; Hirono Oka, violin; Yumi Kendall, cello; Charles Abramovic, piano; Gabe Globus-Hoenich, percussion. Dolce Suono engages the audience in chamber music at a profound level through innovative, dynamic programming spanning Baroque to contemporary music, talks and panel discussions by performers, scholars, and guest composers, and post-concert Meet-the-Artists.
