Kaori Washiyama, violin, and Daniel Shulman, piano, will present a concert at Hubbard Hall, on Saturday, February 22nd, beginning at 7:00 pm. On the program are important works spanning the Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Modern eras.

They include Bach's Sonata in C Minor, with its imposing fugue, and Mozart's brilliant Sonata in A Major, K. 526. Stravinsky's "Suite Italienne" provides a keen re-formatting of Baroque practice according to the composer's witty "modernist" vocabulary, and Franck's Sonata for Violin and Piano, one of the mainstays of the Romantic repertoire, ends the program. Character pieces for the piano by Schumann and Brahms will also be heard. Ms. Washiyama is a competition-winning instrumentalist with international credentials. She teaches at Bennington College. Mr. Shulman, founding-director of several chamber orchestras and ensembles, has performed throughout the U.S., in Europe, and Japan. He will appear again this season at Hubbard Hall, on April 18th, in performance of the final 3 piano sonatas of Schubert.
