Sat, 03/19/2022 - 10:45am

On Saturday, March 26 at 7 p.m., Bay Chamber Concerts & Music School presents much loved regular, oboist James Austin Smith at the Rockport Opera House.

James will be joined by hornist David Byrd-Marrow, and award-winning pianist, Renate Rohlfing. All three musicians have distinguished themselves on concert platforms across the globe and in diverse education and social impact settings.

Their program centers around music by Schumann as a starting point for an exploration of broad ranging music for wind instruments and piano. Highlights include Robert Schumann's beloved “Fantasiestücke,” Bacewicz's “Oboe Sonata,” and Clara Schumann's “Romances for Oboe and Piano.”
