MozartFest at St. James Cathedral

This weekend, our partner organization St. James Cathedral is hosting MozartFest, a two-day celebration of Mozart's music (not to mention his 250th birthday!) We think these concerts may be of particular interest to this summer's Rush Hour attendees:

Violinist Bernard Zinck frequently appears at Rush Hour and will be playing on Saturday evening's concert of chamber music. This concert will also feature music familiar to RH attendees from June 13's Mozart Birthday Celebration. Hear the Divertimento for String Trio in E-flat, K. 563, and the Oboe Quartet in F Major, K. 370, in their entireties!

Saturday, October 14 - 7:30 p.m.
Mozart Chamber Music
Faculty Musicians from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

Divertimento for String Trio in E-flat, K. 563
Quartet in F Major for Oboe, Violin, Viola & Cello, K. 370 (K. 368b)

Doors open at 7:00 p.m. - Requested donation: $10
