Welcome to Barefoot Chamber Concerts. We present short programs of high quality chamber music in an informal setting, with light refreshments. All programs (60-75 minutes with no intermission) are in the wonderful acoustic of the Parish Hall of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 2300 Bancroft Way, Berkeley, and start at 6 p.m. on Fridays.
Our 2009-2010 Season brings you six concerts from very different spheres of chamber music. With Ostraka, Josh Lee and his colleagues show us the improvisatory and virtuosic side of the viol. Kathy Perl and Janet See play the Bach flute sonatas and more. Hallifax & Jeffrey return with 2 programs, one featuring English viol duos, and another showcasing French music for 3 and 4 viols with guests Marie Dalby and Josh Lee. Violinist Cynthia Miller Freivogel treats us to unaccompanied Bach. Quaver, not your parents’ viol consort, plays new and old music in “Yesterday’s Tomorrow.”
