Sinfonia Salon Returns!

April 10, 2023

On a lovely, sunny spring day, Sinfonia’s fundraising event returned to its usual beautiful site after a four-year hiatus due to the pandemic. Hosted by dear Sinfonia friends in their spectacular Chestnut Hill home, seven advanced PS musicians — five string-players and two winds — performed spectacularly before a full and receptive audience.

The repertoire they played ranged from Handel and Albinoni to Bartók and Machavariani (1913 – 1995). Interspersed with exquisite duets for clarinet and cello by Beethoven, and ending with four violins performing Movement 1 of Vivaldi’s Concerto No. 10, their performances showcased the talent and musicality of our dedicated students.

Followed by a lavish reception assembled by our Board, this was a perfect afternoon to enjoy the camaraderie, the musicianship, and the creativity of the Philadelphia Sinfonia community.
