A Note from the Music Director
Welcome to our third season of sharing music in our home, the warm and acoustically excellent sanctuary of CSAIR, the Conservative Synagogue Adath Israel of Riverdale.
We are looking forward to our second weekend of the season, starting January 21, with an exciting Saturday evening program of masterpieces of past composers as well as a wonderful new work by our friend American composer Gabriela Frank. Traveling through time and space, we will open with the graceful wit and lively conversation of Haydn's quartet op. 76 #2, then take a trip with Gabriela to the sights and sounds of Peru in Milagros, a set of passionate and evocative short pieces for string quartet. After intermission we will travel back to Russia of the 1880's for the luscious melodies of the string quartet #2 of Borodin, whose music -- including the lovely Nocturne of this quartet -- became the basis of the score for the musical Kismet.
And we will have a craft beer-tasting to round out the evening! The new Bronx Brewery has generously donated its new Bronx Pale Ale for our enjoyment. Doors will open at 7:30 and the beer will be on tap for the evening. Head brewer Damian Brown will give a short demonstration of beer-tasting at 7:45 and will be available during the evening to answer questions. So please tell all your beer-loving friends to come and join us for the best of chamber music with a fabulous new beer, all for the same ticket price. And as always my colleagues and I look forward to joining you after the concert at our reception.
Then the next day, Sunday afternoon January 22, treat yourself and a favorite child to an interactive, up-close look into selections from Saturday night's concert in an hour-long format that engages the entire family. We will again be offering free admission to this Sunday program to any adults accompanied by a child, so come out to the concert on Saturday night and return on Sunday with the kids or grandkids.
We hope to see you in January.

Her varied career has included solo appearances with Zubin Mehta and Andre Kostelanetz, chamber music with Heifetz and Gregor Piatigorsky and premiers of solo and chamber works for both violin and viola.
Cellist James Wilson has performed as recitalist and chamber musician at music festivals such as the Mostly Mozart Festival in New York and the Aspen Music Festival in Colorado. He performs regularly with many groups including Music from Copland House, the Brooklyn Chamber Music Society, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, with which he has served as principal cellist.

When you subscribe to the Saturday evening series, please consider our Music-for-the-Community Package. We believe exposing children to the beauty and excitement of chamber music can inspire their participation in and enjoyment of music-making of all kinds for years to come. And this season we hope to build on our initial efforts to bring music to our neighbors in nursing and rehab facilities who are not able to come to our home at CSAIR—last March we played at the James A. Peters VA Hospital in the Bronx. But to make these community-building programs possible and affordable for all, we need your help.
Music-for-the-Community Package
