'Tis The Season! Join us Thursday, December 19th for the the Heifetz Institute's annual "Holiday Homecoming" concert at the Kreeger Museum.
Our all-star cast of Heifetz alumni includes prize-winning artists Angela Chan, Julia Angelov, and Kayleigh Kim, violins; violist Matthew Cohen, cellist Andres Sanchez, and pianist Zhenni Li.
The concert will feature season favorites, glittering solo works, chamber music masterworks, and some special Yuletide delights. Selections will include Vivaldi's sublime "Christmas" Violin Concerto, Tchaikovsky's captivating Rococo Variations, the Sinfonia from J.S. Bach's Christmas Oratorio, the aching Hebrew Melody by Joseph Achron, and the magnificent Piano Quintet No. 2 in A Major by Antonín Dvořák. Heifetz performances are invariably among the most talked-about concert events on the holiday concert calendar, so you won't want to miss the dazzling virtuosity and poignant passion of these young Heifetz performers, whose music will help to make the holidays glow a bit brighter. Hallelujah!
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for a wine & cheese reception, followed by the concert at 7:30 p.m.
