Classical Music | Choral Music and Pet Blessing: Preaching to the Birds


In celebration of St Francis, a choir will perform St Francis Preaching to the Birds. St Francis is said to have preached to the birds, who flocked around the saint wherever he went. Budgerigars (parakeets) will be in attendance and invite other birds and other pets (with their humans!) to join them. Followed by drinks and light lunch in the courtyard. Treats for birds, dogs, cats, and other animals are also offered at the lunch. Birds should be in cages (or tethered) unless they are very happy to sit on their humans shoulder. Dogs should be on leashes. Cats should be in carriers or on leashes.

Concert | A Tribute to Pianist/Composer Robert Casadesus


Black Oak Ensemble and pianist Wenting Yu play a tribute to the life of pianist and composer Robert Casadesus. Robert Casadesus (1899-1972), the renowned French concert pianist, was also a prolific composer. Student of harmony and composition at the Paris Conservatory, Casadesus pursued composition throughout his performing career. Yet, it is an enigma that Casadesus did not promote his own compositions in public until the 1940s. Thus, his music is rarely performed today. In quality, these works stand alongside pieces by Poulenc, Prokofiev, Copland, and their contemporaries. His oeuvre provides another window to the mid-twentieth century musical time period. This outstanding pianist left not only a legacy in performance, recording, and pedagogy, but also sixty-eight original works, including seven symphonies, three concerti for solo piano, one concerto for two pianos, one concerto for three pianos, and a large body of duo sonatas and chamber music. Casadesus wrote expressively, revealing a keen understanding of the physical demands and enormous color possibilities of each instrument.
