FARMINGTON – The Arts Institute of Western Maine will present a concert of varied chamber music performed by musicians of Maine Mountain Chamber Music at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 23, in Nordica Auditorium at the University of Maine at Farmington. Tickets, available at the door, will be $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and free for children.
The music will be a Schubert piano quartet, a Kodaly duo for violin and cello based on Hungarian folk melodies, and a Dvorak quartet.
The performers in the concert include Maine Mountain Chamber Music’s co-founders Laurie Kennedy, principal violist of the Portland Symphony, and pianist Yuri Funahashi, who performs locally and internationally, most recently with the acclaimed Verdehr Trio. Kennedy and Funahashi will be joined by cellist Mark Votapek, who has performed with the group for several years and who is currently associate principal cellist of the St. Louis Symphony. This year the group will be joined by a new violinist, Jasmine Lin. The New York Times described Lin as an “unusually individualistic player” with “electrifying assertiveness.”
