Salisbury hosts free chamber music concert Friday

On Friday, Aug. 13, at 7:30 p.m., the Salisbury Summer Performance Series will host a chamber concert by the faculty ensemble of the Point Counterpoint Music Camp under Music Director Beste Tiknaz. The professionals staffing the camp’s fourth summer session hail from the likes of Istanbul, Barcelona and Puerto Rico as well as London’s College of Music and the New England Conservatory.  Their international careers have found them performing at Aix en Provence, Salzburg, London’s Guildhall and BBC Proms, and Turin, as well as Tanglewood and Lincoln Center. They will perform Handel’s “Passacaglia;” Dvorak’s “Bagatells” Op. 47; Webern’s “Lansamer satz,” string quartet; and Leo Blanco’s “The South of Strings,” string quartet. 

Because of the need to utilize the piano, this concert will occur indoors. Guests are asked to wear masks for indoor events unless fully vaccinated, and we welcome those who prefer to remain masked even though they are fully inoculated. 

The Summer Performance Series will run through Aug. 26 at the historic, but handicapped accessible, 1838 meetinghouse in Salisbury Village. There is no admission charge; a free-will donation in support of the series will be appreciated.
