Beethoven Fest Park City May 22 Romantic Works!

Featuring exquisite 18th Century works of Handel, Telemann, and 20th Century masterpieces by Gabriel Faure´ and Francis Poulenc featuring violist Leslie Harlow, clarinetist Russell Harlow, pianist/harpsichordist Pamela Palmer Jones and cellist Richard Jones. The Faure´ Trio is an expansively rich work, wonderfully lyrical and melodic, perfect for this combination. The blending of viola and clarinet creates a unique, velvety sound, unlike any instrumental combination. Poulenc’s Clarinet Sonata is one of his most beautiful works and an audience favorite. The Handel and Telemann Trio Sonatas are true chamber music masterpieces and some of the finest examples of the work of these two favorite composers.

“The [Beethoven Festival] kicked off its 19th season Monday with a concert at the Park City Community Church that reminded listeners why this festival is so easy to love. – Celia Baker, Salt Lake Tribune

The Park City Institute is partnering with the Park City Chamber Music Society’s Beethoven Festival to bring chamber music back to the George S. & Dolores Dore Eccles Center for the Performing Arts.
The Beethoven Festival is Utah’s longest-running classical music festival and each season continues to be lauded for its fresh and inviting style of expressive presentations of the greatest music.
The Eccles Center is one of Park City’s premier music venues with excellent acoustics, comfortable seats, and a large stage. Artists and patrons both praise the venue as it provides the perfect environment for a direct connection between the artist and the audience.
