Matinée Musicale Club met on Wednesday, May 9, 2018, at the home of Nancy Goldberg at 11 am for a recital and lunch. Judy Martin, Administrative President of Matinée Musicale, welcomed everyone and thanked our hostess, Nancy Goldberg. We also wished Larrie Howard a happy birthday!
Pianist Lise Proto began the program with “Le Jardin de Dolly” by Gabriel Faure (1845-1924) and Nocturne in D-flat by Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915). Next, pianist Janelle Gelfand, violinist Larrie Howard, and cellist Karen Kruse performed the first movement, Molto allegro ed agitato, from the Piano Trio No. 1 by Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-1847). Then, Karen Kruse and Janelle Gelfand closed the program with the second movement, Allegro, from the Sonata for Cello and Piano in d-minor by Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975).
After the concert, Judy Martin made some announcements, including our upcoming Luncheon on June 13 at Greenacres, which will feature four first-place winners of the first Nancy F. Walker Memorial Scholarship Competition. Nancy Bailey spoke about the upcoming competition, which took place on Saturday, May 12.
We enjoyed a delightful lunch of turkey and tuna sandwiches, salad and relishes, and assorted desserts and beverages.
