Allegheny Ensemble Concert to Benefit Library

The Allegheny Ensemble—cellist Jeffrey Schoyen, violinist Sachiho Murasugi and pianist Ernest Barretta—returns to Salisbury University, performing with guest singer John Wesley Wright, 7:30 p.m. Monday, November 2, in the Great Hall of Holloway Hall to support the SU Department of Music’s collections in Blackwell Library.

Selections include Brahms’ “Piano Trio” in C major and Bach’s “Unaccompanied Cello Suite No. 1.” Also on the program is "La Muerte del Angel" by Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla, known for his compositions that combine elements of jazz and tango with classical music. Wright joins the trio for a set of folk songs from the British Isles transcribed by Beethoven.

Tickets for this incredible concert are only $15, and advance tickets are available in person at the Blackwell Library Circulation Desk or via mail. Checks made payable to the SU Foundation, Inc. may be sent to Karen Wilson, Blackwell Library, Salisbury University, 1101 Camden Ave., Salisbury, MD 21801. More information on the performance, including information on the members of the Allegheny Ensemble and John Wesley Wright, can be found here.
