Discover the music of a true pioneer. Join us for TRAILBLAZER, a captivating evening celebrating the brilliant, fiercely original chamber music of Rebecca Clarke.

As both a virtuoso violist and a composer, Clarke smashed 20th-century glass ceilings, writing music of incredible emotional depth and harmonic color. She has been a huge inspiration to us since the beginning, and we’re paying her tribute with a feature concert. Her sweeping Piano Trio is not to be missed, and CPSTL founder Laura Reycraft brings the beloved Viola Sonata to life with pianist Young Kim.
