67 Broadway & Hollywood in Four Hands May 21, 7:30 p.m. Broadway has historically been one of the important birthplaces of popular songs in America, and by the late ‘20s, American songwriters started working in Hollywood as well. Pioneers in four-hands jazz piano, husband-and- wife duo Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi join us with dazzling arrangements from the stage and silver screen. Blending impeccable technique with mature musicality, the duo has recently performed in a variety of venues, including the London Jazz Festival and Jazzland in Vienna. Copeland String Quartet May 28, 7:30 p.m. Violinists Eliezer Gutman and Lisa Vaupel, violist Elizabeth Jaffe and cellist Jennifer Jie Jin join us with compositions from around the globe. Beginning in Austria with works by Haydn, they travel on to Russia with Tchaikovsky’s most beloved Andante Cantabile movement from his String Quartet no.1. This is followed by Brazilian rhythm composed by H. Villa-Lobos leading to a little Klezmer music styled by American composer Lev Zhurbin.
