Celebrating 15 years of musical partnership
Saturday, March 14 at 7:30 p.m.—BRANDON—Brandon Music is delighted to welcome the Cerutti-Reid Duo on Saturday, when they will be performing an evocative and varied classical program of 19th to 21st century music on piano and viola.
Pianist Alison Bruce Cerutti and violist Elizabeth Reid are two of Vermont’s finest instrumentalists and are also members of the Northern Third Piano Quartet – well known for their first rate performances. This present series of concerts as a piano-viola duo is intended to celebrate 15 years of Cerutti and Reid’s musical partnership.
As part of this stirring program the Cerutti-Reid duo will give the world premiere of Vermont composer Carol Wood’s work for viola and piano, “The Long Parting.” Also featured are the American premieres of the works “Curfew” by Elisabeth Blair and “Sonata for Viola and Piano” by David Jaeger. The program will also include “Ballade” by Claude Debussy, “Fratres” by Arvo Pärt and will conclude with “Sonata in F minor for viola and piano” by Johannes Brahms. This latter piece sparked the start of Cerutti and Reid’s collaboration as a duo. They will be performing this program at venues throughout Vermont.
The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. Concert tickets are $20. A pre-concert dinner is available for $25. Reservations are required for dinner and recommended for the show. Venue is BYOB. Call (802) 247-4295 or e-mail info@brandon-music.net for reservations or for more information. Brandon Music is located at 62 Country Club Rd. in Brandon.
