The Concert Artist Program of Kean University opens its 11th season with En France. The concert program will feature works by French composers—well-known and unknown—including the profoundly beautiful Trio for Flute, Viola, and Harp by Claude Debussy. Also featured will be the amusing and jazzy Clarinet Sonata by Francis Poulenc, sumptuous songs by Henri Duparc and a neglected masterpiece, Quintet for Strings in G minor, op. 51, by George Onslow.
Musicians performing include Brennan Sweet & Victoria Stewart, violins; Brett Deubner, viola; Susannah Chapman, cello; Anthony Scelba, double bass; Katherine Harris, soprano; Romie de Guise-Langois, clarinet; Lisa Hansen, flute; Robbin Gordon-Cartier, harp, Allison Brewster Franzetti, piano.
The Concert Artist Program brings world-renowned performing musicians onto the faculty of the Conservatory of Music. While maintaining successful careers as professional performers, Concert Artists present solo, chamber music, and jazz recitals at Kean; teach private, weekly studio lessons to Kean students; and conduct master classes and other community outreach services in the public schools and junior colleges. Some Concert Artists also coach ensembles and teach classroom courses related to their specialties.
Enlow Hall is a new concert hall with precision acoustics unmatched by most other venues in the region. The stunning 312-seat concert space creates an intimate performance experience for audiences with close proximity to the line-up of world-class musicians and virtuosos of tomorrow.
