SUMMARY:Sunday Series: Libor Ondras and The Hummel Trio - We have reached our maximum capacity!
DESCRIPTION:*Due to 50% capacity and 6′ COVID distancing\, we have reached our maximum audience capacity!!\n\nThe Hummel Trio\, featuring\nLibor Ondras – violin\nAndrew Laven\, cello\nEmily Grabinski\, piano\n\n\nA free concert featuring Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra (GLCO) Music Director and violinist Libor Ondras is slated for Sunday\, May 16\, at First Presbyterian Church\, 7940 Cemetery Rd.\, Harbor Springs. \nOndras will perform with The Hummel Trio at the 4 p.m. concert\, which is open to the public. In addition to Ondras\, the trio includes cellist Andrew Laven and pianist Emily Grabinski. \nThe group will perform three selections: Ludwig Van Beethoven’s Trio op. 70 No. 1 (Ghost); Franz Schubert’s Nocturne op. 148; and Dmitri Shostakovich’s Trio No. 2 op. 67. \nPublished in 1809\, Beethoven’s Trio Opus 70 contains two trio compositions and was written specifically for violin\, piano and cello. Thought to be the among Beethoven’s best work in the trio genre\, “Ghost” is performed in D major. \nAlso referred to as “Adagio\,” Schubert’s Nocturne op. 148 was completed in 1827 and offers a prime example of the Austrian composer’s chamber music. Nocturnes are musical pieces that refer to or are evocative of nighttime. \nDedicated to one of Shostakovich’s best friends\, Trio No. 2 op. 67 contains four movements and lasts 25-27 minutes. Another selection written for violin\, piano and cello\, the composition was penned during World War II. \nThe trio will also perform with young musicians from the Gerber Strings program. \nNow in its 20th year\, the GLCO is back on track following a year-long pandemic shutdown. Judith Zorn\, GLCO executive director\, said everyone affiliated with the orchestra is excited to be performing again with an exciting list of events yet to come this year. \nWhile May brings the free Sunday Series in Harbor Springs\, June ushers in a GLCO main stage performance – “Americana” – at Hall Auditorium in Bay View on Saturday\, June 5\, 7-9 p.m. Tickets are available via www.glcorchestra.org. \nThe June 5 concert is also significant due to GLCO’s recent selection by the League of American Orchestras (LAO) as one of 10 orchestras to be featured at the League’s National Conference June 7-17. A recording of GLCO’s “Americana” concert will be featured during the event. \n“With a nod to the past and a look to the future\, the Americana performance highlights a great variety of American composers\,” Zorn said. “George Gershwin’s ‘Rhapsody in Blue’ is in the program\, and flautist Helen Hanchin\, will receive belated honors for winning the 2019 Young Artist Competition\, as well as perform with the orchestra. All in all\, this concert will be lots of fun! We’ll get to honor some of our young artists and hear some wonderful music.” \nThe Sunday Series event is free\, but seating is limited. Seat reservations can be made by calling the orchestra office. \nTickets for the June Bay View concert\, which features the full orchestra\, are $30. \nThe GLCO is a regional professional orchestra providing live orchestral concerts that entertain\, educate and inspire.
