Music: Sun Jan 29

This Sunday at 10am, the Prelude begins with a special Music for All Ages preview of Sunday afternoon’s Music at CUUC Concert with violinist Claire Chan, cellist Sibylle Johner, and Music Director pianist Adam Kent. With help from members of the Youth Group, this interactive presentation focuses on Brahms’s Piano Trio No. 3 in C Minor. The upcoming monthly theme of Grace is illustrated in the composer’s ability to extract a wealth of varied thematic ideas and complex musical development from the humblest beginnings, a simple five-note pattern.

CUUC’s Choir is also on hand with fascinating settings of texts by William Shakespeare and traditional African sources.
