Dinner Menu
Spanning three continents, this program begins with music by the dean of African-American music, William Grant Still. His Four Indigenous Portraits are snapshots of the diverse American landscape, way in advance of current trends, reality and fashions. Music from two South American giants, Villa Lobos from Brazil and Ginastera from Argentina, continue this extravaganza. The concert closes with a masterpiece of Impressionism, the String Quartet by Ravel.

These weekend concerts are sponsored by E. Randol and Pamela Schoenberg.
