A Musical Feast (Back to events)

- Tue, May 27th 2008, 8:00pm
- Located at : 320 Porter Avenue, Buffalo NY
A Musical Feast, the dynamic new chamber music organization founded by retired Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra concertmaster Charles Haupt in 2006, presents the final concert in its very successful second season at The Kavinoky Theater of D’Youville College.
Making a very welcome return to A Musical Feast will be a special guest, the bass-trombone virtuoso David Taylor. The only bass trombonist to win the National Academy of Recording Arts and Science’s “Most Valued Player Award,” Mr. Taylor has done so a total of five times, the most times that it can be awarded to any musician. He has been on numerous Grammy award-winning recordings, having recorded with artists as diverse as Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, YoYo Ma and the Rolling Stones, in addition to recording seven solo CD’s. The evening will conclude with a performance of Mozart’s Piano Trio No. 5, in C major K. 548, featuring Mr. Haupt (violin), Mr. Golove (cello) and Ms. Hoca (piano). Composed towards the end of the composer’s all too brief life, the work has a very natural elegance, combining great vitality with intimacy and, ultimately, a wonderful sense of serenity.
Once again, A Musical Feast, promises an evening of deep listening enjoyment, where the most talented artists perform a carefully selected and balanced program of the very finest compositions, both familiar and rare.
