The Friends of the Claverack Library will present The River Trio in a House Concert on Saturday, November 5th, at 5 PM.
The trio, composed of Claverack cellist Jay Shulman, violinist Linda Finegan Lott, and flutist Pamela Sklar, will play late 18th century music by Hayden, Handel, and Myslivicek, a less familiar composer who was a friend of Mozart’s.
The concert, at the home of Kathy and Sedat Pakay, 230 Route 217 in Claverack, just south of the Roxbury Road intersection, will be followed by wine and cheese. The event is an opportunity to hear chamber music in a period home, an intimate environment like that in which it was intended to be played.
Tickets are $20. For information and reservations, which are essential, call Karen Rosand at 518 851-5656 or email Karen@agracefulplan.com
