Music brings us together to celebrate our differences and our common experiences. This Classical Tuesdays season opens with a gift of music from Trinidad. Please join us and Tacoma musicians in celebrating this vibrant culture! On September 8, check out Classical Tuesdays at www.youtube.com/classicaltuesdays for:
- Our performance by Steel Pan, an ensemble representing the music of Trinidad. Led by Miho Takekawa, a member of the PLU music faculty, the group will perform several selections. (Pre-recorded a few days in advance)
- A conversation between Greg Youtz (PLU music faculty and head of the PLU Trinidad and Tobago Study Abroad program), Miho, Sebastian Hernandez (and his young students in the PSD Pans of Steel ensemble), and me, Pamela Ryker (Artistic Director of the Classical Tuesdays series).
I will announce a link (on the Classical Tuesdays website,
on Facebook, and via
email) a few days before showtime on September 8. Or explore youtube.com/classicaltuesdays now, before the event!
The Classical Tuesdays season will unfold month by
month as musicians experiment with recording at home for later broadcast or
live-streaming. Performances will include some of the series’ familiar musician
friends, and some musicians new to our community.
Join me in wishing all in our neighborhood and beyond good health!
