Coming Up
Musicians of Old Post Road A Hive of Creativity
Join Musicians of the Old Post Road and be transported into the buzzing, convivial atmosphere of Sara Levy’s 18th-century Berlin salon gatherings! Experience period-instrument performances of a cutting-edge viola duet by Levy’s teacher W.F. Bach, a quartet she commissioned by C.P.E Bach, the regional premiere of a flute sonata by the Bohemian virtuoso Franz Benda, and inventive chamber works by Johann Schobert and J.G. Janitsch. To further evoke the spirit of Sara Levy’s famous salons, short selections of engaging works penned by Enlightenment thinkers will be read between the musical selections. This is the ensemble’s 37th collaboration with WM&HS, whose members receive a $10 discount to tickets, with the code WMHS at purchase. Reception hosted by the WM+HS to follow immediately after the performance.
