Palisades Virtuosi Presents 20th Anniversary Concert On November 29 At Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall

The critically-acclaimed Palisades Virtuosi flute, clarinet and piano trio will present their 20th Anniversary Concert at Carnegie Hall on Tuesday, November 29 @ 7:30 PM @ Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, 154 W 57th St. in Manhattan.

PV's first concert was held on November 30th, 2002 at the St Paul's Music Series in Nyack, NY and included works by Bloch, Debussy, Faure, Gaubert, Liszt, and Saint-Saens. Most of the repertoire was solos and duos, as there was at the time virtually no repertoire for their configuration.

Now, after having had nearly 100 new works created for them, PV will celebrate its 20th Anniversary and this repertoire with the event on November 29. The program will include three World Premieres, including works written for the ensemble by Rita Blacker, Adrienne Albert and Patrick D. Finley, alongside previously PV commissioned works by Eric Ewazen, James Cohn, Steve Perillo, Carlos Franzetti and John Lampkin. Very special guests will include composers Adrienne Albert, Eric Ewazen and other friends.

Tickets, starting at $30, are available at https://www.carnegiehall.org/calendar/2022/11/29/palisades-virtuosis-20th-anniversary-concert-0730pm or call CarnegieCharge at 212-247-7800. The box office is open every day (Monday through Saturday, 11 AM - 6 PM; Sunday, 12 PM-6PM).
