A Concert of “Ones…Twos…and Threes”
November 10

Chamber Music San Juans’ next concert of its silver anniversary season brings together a trio of CMSJ veterans for a concert brimming with ones, twos and threes—that is, solos, duos and trios— for clarinet, cello and piano.  Joining clarinetist and artistic director Patricia Kostek at San Juan Community Theatre on Saturday, November 10 at 7:30 p.m. will be pianist Bruce Vogt and cellist Rowena Hammill.

Appearing regularly in concert within Canada, Vogt has also inspired audiences in England, the USA, China, and Japan.  His CMSJ “Portrait of Liszt’ recital in 2011 enthralled the Whittier audience.  This time, Vogt will perform the magically beautiful Images in honor of the 150th anniversary of Claude Debussy’s birth.  (As a composer, Debussy’s works had a strong influence on jazz).

A native of Australia, Hammill has played on hundreds of film and television soundtracks.  She is a former member of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and has performed in several CMSJ concerts, including with Odeonquartet.  She now divides her time between the Northwest and California.

Hammill, Vogt and Kostek will present several trio pieces, including what Kostek calls an “energetic and jazzy” Muczynski and an “excitingly folksy” Glinka. Kostek will perform the rarely heard Fantasy Pieces by Danish composer Niels Gade.

The Business Partner for this performance is Managed Reliability.  Tickets are $26 for adults and $13 for student reserved.  $5 Student RUSH will be available at the door.  A private donor has made provision for free tickets to anyone needing financial assistance to attend a Theatre event.
