celebrating 125 years of community service with concerts and cupcakes!
Two Short Historical Music Reviews in the Atrium at 5:00 p.m. & 6:30 p.m.
Free Birthday Cupcakes on the Pavilion at 5:45 p.m.
Set to a light and entertaining script, our program will include Prelude in C-sharp Minor, one of Rachmaninoff’s most famous piano compositions, performed by Moscow Conservatory-trained Valentina Rodov, who was a 2011 Van Cliburn piano competition semi-finalist; a frisky saxophone quartet; exciting steel drummers; singers from B.F. Day Elementary School; “Summer” from Piazzolla’s The Seasons, a stirring trio for violin, cello and piano; and the bouncy spiritual, Ain’t No Grave Can Hold My Body Down.
The festive afternoon/evening event is hosted by MOHAI as part of its popular “First Thursday” free programs and will honor LMC and its immense contribution to Seattle’s musical scene. At 5:45 p.m. a birthday cake, celebrating the organization and its 125 years of music-making, will be cut on the outdoor Pavilion. Anniversary cupcakes will be available for all in attendance.
Support is provided by MOHAI, Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and 4Culture
