Lumiere Trio performs November 2

Want more music? Rapport between artists and audience is at the heart of the chamber music experience. Be a part of it - and hear more!

As a way of bringing more music to more people, the Nashua Symphony Association’s concert season this year includes chamber music concerts designed to supplement the offerings of the Orchestra and Symphony Chorus. The second of these, on Sunday, November 2 at 3:00 p.m., will feature the NSO’s Acting Associate Concertmaster Soo Gyeong Lee and her Lumiere Trio, playing music of Bach, Schubert, and Mendelssohn.

"Soo brings a wonderful energy and vitality to her playing," says Executive Director Eric Valliere, who was delighted to have the opportunity to give the Lumiere Trio a spot on this season’s chamber music series. "In all cases," he notes, "we try to place NSO players on these chamber programs, so this worked out really well for everyone."

Ms. Lee will be joined by Luke Krafka on cello and Oleksandr Poliykov on piano, for a program designed to showcase composers featured on the up-coming November 22 concert of the Nashua Symphony Orchestra & Chorus, One for all.

"This is Mendelssohn’s 200th birthday season," Valliere explains, "and these programs are meant to celebrate that by considering Mendelssohn’s advocacy on behalf of his predecessors as well as their influence on him. November 2 will be a great concert, and it will resonate even more deeply for those who also attend the concert on November 22."

Chamber concerts begin at 3:00 p.m. at Rivier College's Dion Center (map).

These concerts are made possible by the generous support of Rivier College.

TICKETS: $15 adults; $10 seniors and students; FREE with Rivier College I.D. Contact us to reserve your seats.

Nashua HEAR(s) debuts October 27 in Nashua's middle school

On Monday, October 27, all 6th-graders in the Nashua school district will be treated to a visit from Nashua Symphony Music Director Jonathan McPhee, along with several musicians from the orchestra. Mr. McPhee and the players will use music to illustrate themes of genre and structure in literature, which students are studying in their Language Arts classes. Students will look at the story of Coriolanus, a Roman general whose tragic story was later told by Shakespeare in his play, and about whom Beethoven wrote his "Coriolan Overture," which the students will hear in the full-orchestra version next April.
