HAPPENING TODAY:
Organist Monica Csausz Berney kicks off the evening schedule with a 7:30 recital at Trinity Cathedral, co-sponsored by the Cleveland Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. As Daniel Hathaway wrote in a preview, “Berney will make use of both the Cathedral’s 1977 Flentrop organ and its 2022 Skinner / Aeolian-Skinner / Mueller instrument in a program largely devoted to transcriptions of works originally written for other musical media” — including works by J.S. Bach, Johannes Brahms, Nikolai Kapustin, Sigfrid Karg-Elert, and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
And at 7:30 at West Shore Unitarian Universalist Church, the Rocky River Chamber Music Society presents cellist Keith Robinson, pianist Hyunsoon Whang, and clarinetist Daniel McKelway in music by Samuel Barber, Sergei Prokofiev, and Johannes Brahms. The recital will also be streamed. Read Mike Telin’s interview with Robinson here.
A freewill offering will be taken up at both events. Program details can be found in our Concert Listings.
