Winsor Music with Peggy Pearson, oboe

American String QuartetPeggy Pearson and her friends were here on the Sunday following the fateful 9/11/2001. Now, ten years later, she has agreed to come again and bring with her a group of young musicians, one of whom has composed music for just this occasion. Haydn and Mendelssohn will also be on the program.

Escher String QuartetCarter Brey, cello,
Christopher O’Riley, piano

We don’t think that virtuosi Carter Brey, or Christopher O’Riley need much of an introduction to our music loving audience. We are just enormously pleased that we were able to engage both of them for a glorious Chopin and Schumann fest, or should it be feast?

Walden Chamber PlayersTrio Solisti

Well known and well loved by our audiences we

have invited them back once again. Their sparkling renditions of music by Mozart, Moravec, Hubay and Brahms are sure to be another highlight of our 2011/12 season. Some things just get better with time..

Hugo Wolf QuartettAnn Schein, piano

”..….her beautiful tone and the rhythmic freedom of her playing reminded one of that great Chopin master, Arthur Rubinstein, with whom Ms Schein studied…”


Just one of the many laudatory comments on her performance. We welcome her warmly to Newtown.
