Russian choral music is very dear to Charles Bruffy and our final concerts of the season will display the wonderful contrast of Russian choral music from Glinka to Stravinsky to brand-new music by pianist and composer Vladimir Pleshakov.

| OLA GJEILO IN CONCERT MAY 15
With saxophonist Ted Belledin
Just announced! Composer and pianist
Ola Gjeilo will perform a special concert with saxophonist Ted Belledin at Trinity Cathedral. The concert features these two musicians in a duet creating new music - completely improvised on the spot.

This is a rare and special treat - you won't want to miss this concert!
