Vashon Chamber Music
Vashon Chamber Music concert honors MLK
In honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, this spiritually-themed program, third in the Series, offers Bach cantata, "Ich habe genug," (I have enough) a wondrous piece for baritone, oboe and strings. The German Baroque composer wrote hundreds of cantatas during his tenure as a Kantor to reflect readings from Lutheran liturgy.
The second half features pieces by living composers from Estonia (Pärt) and Latvia (Pelecis). "Fratres," inspired by medieval chant, refers to monks. "Flowering Jasmine" evokes deep emotion and brings hope of spring to a wintry world. Telemann's Trio Sonata in G Minor for violin and oboe, is considered one of chamber music's most marvelous listening experiences.
The all-star cast includes: Andrew Krikawa, baritone; Stuart Horn, oboe; English Horn player for Los Angeles Opera; Artur Girsky, violin, Seattle Symphony; Karin Choo, violin; Michael Werner, percussion; Principal percussionist of Seattle Symphony; Gaye Detzer, violin; Heather Bentley, viola; Douglas Davis, cello; Rowena Hammill, cello.
Additional tickets are available for this performance, thanks to hospitality provided by Vashon Methodist Church.-
