Clash of the Cellos II
Sunday, December 14, 3:00 PM
Purchase Performing Arts Center
The Phil's Cello Section
Eugene Moye, principal, Roberta Cooper, Maureen Hynes, Eliana Mendoza, Lanny Paykin, cellos
and Jeanne Ireland, mezzo-soprano
After the first Clash of the Cellos delighted and enthralled three sold-out audiences two years ago, the message was clear: More Cello! We now present Clash II, with an all-new program that again showcases the cello's rich and inspiring sound, in music of Sondheim, Satie, De Falla, Puccini, Bizet, Gershwin and much more. With a dash of holiday flavor, and the return of heart-melting mezzo-soprano Jeanne Ireland for some all-time operatic favorites. Great for the whole family!
