Prepare to be enchanted by The Paramount Chamber Players’ “Nocturne,” a chamber music program filled with moonlight and atmosphere. Ernest Bloch’s “Three Nocturnes for Piano Trio” captivate you with melody and atmosphere alongside the Romantic depths of Faure’s Violin Sonata No. 1. Also on the program are familiar favorites for piano duet, and a special performance by the 2023 Bristol Music Club scholarship winner, Joshua Kova?.

This is the second installment of their 19th concert season, featuring Marianna Brickle on violin, Cherylonda Fitzgerald on cello and Katherine Benson at the piano. The ensemble is joined by international concert pianist Margaret Kim, hailing from Vienna, Austria.
