Special guest Mary Lynch, Seattle Symphony's phenomenal new principal oboist, joins us for an exploration of intimate chamber music for winds, viola and keyboard from 18th-century composers W.F. Bach and Janitsch through the early 20th-century preoccupation with Pan and figures from antiquity. ("Pleasures of Pan", published in 1917, was a six volume set of flute music from three centuries.) The program will include Johann Gottlieb Janitsch's Suonata da Camera Prima for flute, oboe, viola and continuo, the Terzetto for oboe, flute and viola by Gustav Holst, and W.F. Bach's Trio for oboe, flute, viola.

* * * Sunday, December 20, 2015 at 7:00 PM JAZZIN' with the CLASSICS by CANDLELIGHT for CHRISTMAS Linda Tsatsanis ~ soprano Tom Collier ~ vibraphone Jeffrey Cohan ~ flute Martin Lund ~ piano, clarinet and flute
In this program by candlelight, classical and jazz artists and friends from classical and jazz realms meld their musical perspectives and personalities for the fourth year in an unusual collaboration and festive celebration of the Yuletide season that is guaranteed to generate an abundance of Christmas cheer. Soprano Linda Tsatsanis, flutist Jeffrey Cohan and jazz pianist, clarinetist and flutist Martin Lund team up to bridge contemporary improvisational jazz and art music of baroque and renaissance times. Instrumental musicians have "jazzed up" melodies familiar to them in the style of their day for centuries, and this team's virtuoso improvisations on Yuletide favorites, and their renditions of classical standards will bring together the best of jazz and classical worlds. A completely new program for 2015. Also on Whidbey and Orcas Islands and in Stanwood in 2015! Please check www.candlelightseattle.org.
