International Chamber Artists in Schaumberg Prairie Center for the Arts, 201 Schaumburg Court, Schaumburg , IL 60193 ICA in Schaumberg Uruguayan Crespo perfectly translates folklore and feelings of his home into excitingly virtuosic brass music. André Previn’s Four Songs for soprano, cello and piano is a wonderful piece of truly American music. Previn composes with his trademark blend of classical and jazz idioms. The Beethoven "Triple" Concerto showcases a trio of soloists against a chamber orchestra, the only piece of this instrumentation ever composed. Enrique Crespo - Suite Americana No. 1 for Brass Quintet André Previn - Four Songs Ludwig van Beethoven - Concerto in C Major, Op. 56, “Triple Concerto” 3:00pm Ars Viva Symphony Orchestra presents Nordic Warmth Ars Viva North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie, 9501 Skokie Boulevard, Skokie. IL 60077 Grieg: Peer Gynt Suite 1 Nielsen: Violin Concerto Soloist: Yang Liu Sibelius: Symphony No. 3 in C Winter is a fact of life in Scandinavian lands, where favorite escapes include an hour in the sauna or the experience of incredibly beautiful music. You will need to supply your own sauna, but Ars Viva will give you the great music: Grieg's best-loved melodies; Nielsen's meltingly lyrical violin concerto with the consummate Chinese-American artist, Yang Liu (acclaimed as 'best of the billion!'); and a richly rewarding Sibelius symphony often on the lists of musicians' favorites. 4:30pm Handel and the Royals Music of the Baroque First United Methodist Church, Evanston Some of Handel’s most brilliant choral music was inspired by royal occasions. A festive wedding anthem and the birthday ode for Queen Anne sparkle with energy and grandeur, while the monumental funeral anthem Handel wrote for his childhood friend Queen Caroline is a powerful expression of public sorrow and personal grief. Funeral Anthem for Queen Caroline Ode for the Birthday of Queen Anne Anthem for the Wedding of Prince Frederick and Princess Augusta Sunday, February 28, 7:30 PM First United Methodist Church, Evanston Ticket price: $60, $45, $38 7:30pm
