Composers include Fanny Mendelssohn\, Amy Beach\, Mel Bonis\, and living composers Jennifer Higdon\, Reena Esmail\, and Andrea Cassarubios. The Solace Trio—April Johnson (violin)\, Peter Seidenberg (cello)\, and Tomoko Uchino (piano)—will perform these disparate works. \nFanny Mendelssohn’s Piano Trio (1846) is widely considered to be among her greatest compositions. The Romance for violin and piano by Amy Beach is a startlingly beautiful composition of late 19th-century romanticism. The prolific French composer\, Mel Bonis\, will be represented by her Soir et Matin (1907) for violin\, cello\, and piano. The concert then switches gears to three living composers. Jennifer Higdon’s Piano Trio explores the composer’s fascination with the relationship between composing and painting. Andrea Casarrubios’ Sonia for cello and piano (2023) is an homage to Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor\, and Saans (2017) by Indian-American composer Reena Esmail explores\, as does much of her work\, the worlds of classical Indian (Hindustani) and western classical music. \nThe 70-minute program will be performed without breaks for applause. \nAbout the ArtistsApril Johnson [violin].

Enjoy a wonderful afternoon of music\, followed by a cocktail reception\, at the unique\, art-filled venue of the Newington Cropsey Foundation in Hastings. \nPlease join us to hear the beauty of Mozart and Dvořák Piano Quartets amidst the splendor of the paintings of Jasper Cropsey. This unique venue has become a much anticipated annual event for RA Chamber Music enthusiasts\, and Artistic Director Peter Seidenberg has assembled an amazing group of musicians including violinist Muneko Otani\, violist Daniel Panner\, and pianist Hui-Mei Lin. The Cropsey Foundation provides a sumptuous reception following the concert. \nThe program opens with Mozart’s Piano Quartet in g minor K478. Franz Anton Hoffmeister commissioned a series of three piano quartets from Mozart. Both his recently opened publishing house\, and the piano quartet as a musical form\, were new on the scene. Hoffmeister hoped that Mozart would provide popular music\, playable by amateurs\, “easy\, instantly gratifying\, and marketable.” Instead\, Mozart created music that was dramatic and filled with complexity- not at all suitable for amateur musicians. Sales were poor and Hoffmeister cancelled his order for the additional quartets. We\, however\, were blessed with what has become one of Mozart’s most popular chamber music compositions. It should be noted that G minor is a key that Mozart reserved for the dramatic\, often expressing intense and/or dark emotions. (Other famous Mozart compositions in this key include the Symphony #40\, and the String Quintet K\, 516 which we heard a year and a half ago on our concert of Mozart String Quintets.) \nWhile working on his Piano Quartet Op 87\, in the summer of 1889\, Dvořák wrote “My head is so full\, if a human being could only write it all down straight away! […] It is unexpectedly easy and the melodies simply flow towards me. Thanks be to God!”. This work indeed overflows with melodic richness and is one of Dvořák’s glorious chamber pieces. Programming these two piano quartets in one afternoon gives us an opportunity to hear Mozart’s\, who practically “invented” the form\, and Dvořák’s skilled and exciting handling of the same ensemble 100 years later. \n  \n\n\nAbout the Artists:Muneko Otani [violin] As the first violinist of the Cassatt String Quartet Muneko Otani has appeared in the US\, Canada and Mexico as well as in Europe and Asia. Major venues have included Lincoln Center\, the Kennedy Center\, the Library of Congress\, Palacio de Bellas Artes and the Bastille Opera House. The quartet has over 40 recordings\, and were named three times to Alex Ross’ 10 best classical recordings of the year in The New Yorker magazine. Her numerous awards with the Cassatt Quartet include the Wardwell Chamber Music Fellowship at Yale (where they served as teaching assistants to the Tokyo Quartet)\, two top prizes at the Banff International String Quartet Competition\, two CMA/ASCAP Awards for Adventurous Programming\, a recording grant from the Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust\, and commissioning grants from Meet the Composer and the National Endowment for the Arts. As a chamber musician\, she has collaborated with Paul Katz\, Colin Carr\, Ursula Oppens\, Eliot Fisk\, Walter Trampler\, Martin Lovett\, Marc Johnson\, Kazuhide Isomura\, Masuko Ushioda and Lawrence Lesser. \nDaniel Panner [viola] enjoys a varied career as a performer and teacher. As violist of the Mendelssohn String Quartet\, he has concertized extensively throughout the United States and Israel. He has performed at music festivals in Marlboro\, Tanglewood\, Aspen\, and on National Public Radio’s Performance Today\, and has collaborated with members of the Cleveland\, Emerson\, Guarneri\, and Juilliard String Quartets. As a member of the Whitman String Quartet\, Panner received the 1998 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award. He currently teaches at The Juilliard School\, the Mannes College of Music\, SUNY Stonybrook\, and the Queens College Conservatory of Music. He has performed with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center\, Musicians from Marlboro\, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. He has served as the principal violist of such orchestras as the New York City Opera and the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra. An active performer of new music\, he is a member of Sequitur and the Locrian Ensemble and has performed as a guest artist with Speculum Musicae\, the Da Capo Chamber Players\, and Transit Circle. \nPeter Seidenberg [cello and Artistic Director] “Totally enchanting\, inspired performances\, brimming with natural\, spontaneous musicianship”\, raves Gramophone Magazine about cellist Peter Seidenberg. Mr. Seidenberg has played in major halls throughout the US\, Europe\, and Asia\, and served as principal cellist with the Century Orchestra of Osaka. He was a founding member of the critically acclaimed Elements Quartet which created groundbreaking commissioning projects involving over 30 composers. He has collaborated with members of the Cleveland\, Tokyo\, Juilliard and Emerson Quartets and has participated in the Marlboro\, Aspen\, Caramoor\, Casals and Norfolk festivals. Currently\, he is the cellist for the Oracle Trio\, the Queen’s Chamber Band\, and the New York Chamber Soloists. Peter concertizes frequently in collaboration with pianist Hui-Mei Lin. The duo have performed together throughout the US to much acclaim. \nHui-Mei Lin [piano]\, a native of Taiwan\, made her New York solo debut at the Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall as the winner of the Artists International Audition. She was described by the New York Times as “an excellent pianist throughout” and the Taiwan News as “a sensitive and powerful pianist.” With long-time cello partner\, Peter Seidenberg\, Hui Mei has toured throughout the East coast\, New Mexico\, Chicago\, and Taiwan. She has appeared in solo programs at Alice Tully Hall\, the Caramoor Music Festival\, and The Steinway Society of the Bay Area\, among other venues. Her media broadcasts include solo performances at PBS (Maryland)\, WQXR (New York City) and Taiwan Television. \nAbout The Newington-Cropsey FoundationThe Newington-Cropsey Foundation was founded in 1977 by Barbara and John Newington to collect and promote works of Barbara’s great-grandfather\, Hudson River School artist Jasper Cropsey.

If you register and can’t make it\, please email jriesman@riverarts.org \nTime: 7:30-9:30pm \n \n Register for Drink & Draw here\n \n \n \n \n \n Drink & Draw is a modern twist on the classic artistic practice of life drawing. Artists of all experience levels and backgrounds are welcome\, especially those that have always wanted to try their hand.  \nIn this non-instructional event\, we aim to create a relaxing\, social and inclusive environment for the community to come together for a fun night of drawing.  After some mingling with fellow guests\, participants will have an opportunity to capture the human body in poses of different lengths\, with breaks for refreshments in between.   \nThere’s wine\, crackers\, cheese and cookies to enjoy\, and our host curates a playlist to keep your energy flowing.  The evening lasts about 2 hours\, and participants leave with a collection of their new works… and maybe some new friends too. \nRiverArts is proud to be able to provide this unique opportunity right here in our Rivertowns\, an opportunity which is often only accessible to art students or by traveling into New York City\, with a significant investment of time and tuition. Drink & Draw offers a perfect entry-level for the amateur artist\, and we have seen beginners improve significantly as their skills develop in subsequent sessions and they draw on their experience and learn from others.   \nModel provided. Please bring your own art supplies and arrive on time. Must be over 18 to attend. Wine for those 21+ \nFOR MORE INFORMATION EMAIL: jriesman@riverarts.org \n*If you are having issues registering from mobile please try from a desktop or use this link. \n#DrinkAndDraw \n \n Register for Drink & Draw here URL:https://riverarts.org/event/drink-draw-jun12/ LOCATION:Hastings Public Library\, Orr Room\, Lower Level\, 7 Maple Avenue\, Hastings-on-Hudson\, NY\, 10706\, United States CATEGORIES:Art,Figure Drawing,In-person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://riverarts.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Drink_Draw_Fall24.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="RiverArts":MAILTO:info@riverarts.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
