The I’Onissimo! Irish Wind Trio will open the program with selections from the Emerald Isle including Danny Boy, Lavenders Blue, Cockles & Mussels and some lively Irish Jigs. Wind players Stacy Hammond, Flute; Jack Hayes, Bass and Don Norquist, Clarinet will perform. Following, Wayne French of I’Onissimo Sings will share songs in his clear, Irish tenor.
The I’Onissimo! Bass String quintet will play counterpoint with its own ethnic themes performing portions of Dvorjak’s only string quintet for violin, viola, cello and string bass. A lighthearted piece in the tradition of PDQ Bach will weave together Mozarts famous Eine Kleine Nacht Musik and phases from the enduring bagpipe tune Scotland the Brave. The strings will close with a rag by African American composer Scott Joplin. Performing will be Vannessa Chambers, Cello; Julia Hamilton, Violin; Marlena Davis, Violin; Mary Ann Spivy, Viola; and Carolyn Ferrell, string bass.
O’Brion’s kitchen will be open during the concert with food and drink available from the menu.
