    Imani Winds and Stewart Goodyear, Piano

    Sponsored by:
    Performing Arts Series

    The Grammy award-winning Imani Winds joins forces with dynamic pianist and composer Stewart Goodyear. Blending music and narrative—and inspired by the African American folktale “The People Could Fly”—this program marks America’s 250th year with a mediation on freedom, memory, and transformation. Rather than a patriotic celebration, it offers a space for reflection—a journey through works by living composers who give voice to migration, resistance, and the ongoing pursuit of justice.

    Sophie Shao and Friends

    Sponsored by:
    Performing Arts Series

    No season is complete without our perennial favorite, cellist Sophie Shao, and her talented collaborators. This year, Shao has expanded her circle of award-winning friends to six, who will delight our community with the lush sounds of the beloved sextets of Dvorák and Brahms. They’ll also play Arensky’s quartet for violin, viola, and two cellos—a deeply expressive, late-Romantic homage to his friend Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Rounding out the sextet are violinists Jennifer Frautschi and Kyu-Young Kim, Cara Pogossian and Burchard Tang on viola, and cellist Nina Lee.
