Tuesday, March 14, 7:00 p.m.
Bach, Tchaikovsky, Delius and John Williams are the featured
composers in a program devoted to tender gestures and romantic exuberance on
Tuesday, March 14 at Crowell Public Library in San Marino. Violinist Paul Stein, a 35 year member of the
Los Angeles Philharmonic, will perform. The
unaccompanied violin demonstrates many colors and melodic contours. Bach specifically wrote some of his most
profound music for violin and the richness of his harmonies which will be on
display this evening, beginning at 7:00 p.m. in the Library’s Barth Community
Room.
Paul Stein will talk about life in an orchestra and his
experiences as a music teacher and as a performer of family concerts with
Chamber Music Express. He created
the Chamber Music Express ensemble
in 1985 to introduce classical music to audiences at schools and
libraries. He has moderated seminars and
lectured at the Los Angeles Philharmonic Institute and conventions of the Music
Teachers Association of California. He has been a featured soloist at the Hollywood Bowl
and has worked with Zubin Mehta, Carlo Maria Giulini, Andre Previn, Esa-Pekka
Salonen, as well as Gustavo Dudamel. He was principal second violinist
with the Colorado Symphony and performed with the Santa Fe Opera orchestra.
Born in Dallas, Paul received a Bachelor of Music from Southern Methodist
University and Master of Music from Yale University. His hobbies include bridge, bird watching and aquariums, and he lives with
his wife in Monrovia.
