Celtic Harp concert this Friday

Join us this Friday (January 11) for the Chatham Concert Series’ next event, “Celtic to French Impressionism: Music for Flute, Harp and Strings”. The musicians are Roanoke Symphony Flutist Julee Hickcox, Greensboro and Winston-Salem Symphony Principal Harpist Helen Rifas and Kevin and Bryan Matheson of the Classic Strings Duo. 

Celtic harp and flute duets set the stage for the beautiful Sonata for Flute, Viola and Harp by Claude Debussy, the first of its kind. The program continues with Two Interludes by Jacques Ibert for flute, violin and harp, and C. P. E. Hoffman’s quartet for harp, flute, violin and viola. The program will conclude with Beethoven’s famous Serenade for flute, violin and viola.

A special treat will be young flutist Monifa Williams, from Danville.

The concert begins at 7:00 p. m. and is held at Emmanuel Episcopal Church, 66 North Main Street, Chatham. Admission is by donation for the musicians.
