Chamber Players International Benefit Concert

Chamber Players International will present a benefit concert event for GrowNYC on Friday October 21, 7 p.m. at the Jerome L. Greene Performance Space, WNYC's event space in lower Manhattan.

The musical program consists of works by Beethoven and a world premier by guest artist Reinhard Seehafer, internationally renowned composer and symphony conductor. The ensemble consists of world class, award-winning performers including violinist Anna Rabinova, member of the New York Philharmonic and winner of the Leipzig and Belgrade International Violin Competitions.

Chamber Players International celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2011, having been founded in 1971 as The Sea Cliff Chamber Players, one of the first independent, regional chamber music ensembles in the nation.

100% of the proceeds generated by the concert will be donated to the recovery fund to help GrowNYC's Greenmarket farmers who were severely impacted by Tropical Storms Irene and Lee in early September.
