Chamber Series Concerts 2007-2008
Friends of Chamber Music is excited to announce its 2007/2008 season. Opening our 54th season is pianist Angela Hewitt, recently named Gramophone artist of the year. Hewitt will open the main series with a performance of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, Book II (after playing Book 1 as the opening concert of our new Piano Series).
On our main series, we are fortunate to be able to showcase European violinist Christian Tetzlaff in a solo performance. Returning to Denver for an encore performance, cellist David Finckel and pianist Wu Han will close the season with a performance featured as part of the National Performing Arts Convention hosted in Denver during June 2008.
