Langley resident Suzanne Klukas performs with Trio Zimrah at SAMC’s inaugural Faculty + Friends Recital Series

On Sunday, Oct. 5, Trinity Western University presents the inaugural concert of SAMC’s Faculty + Friends Recital Series.

Join special guests, Trio Zimrah, on a musical journey of chamber music for clarinet, violin, and piano.

This culturally rich program includes the French delights of Milhaud, the Russian Armenian folk influence of Khatchaturian, and a joyous Klezmer Wedding by Canadian composer Srul Irving Glick.

The trio features Vancouver-based musicians Connie Gitlin on clarinet, Laura Chenail Hough on violin, and Klukas on piano.

Klukas is a faculty pianist and instructor in music at TWU, where she has designed a Collaborative Piano course and teaches piano, repertoire and studio, and piano pedagogy. She is also regularly on the fa culty of the UBC Summer Voice Institute.

Soprano Alison Nystrom will join Trio Zimrah to perform Vivaldi’s “Domine Deus” and Schubert’s masterpiece, “Shepherd on the Rock.”

The Recital Series, a gift to the community from TWU’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture, is an accessible way to enjoy world-class performances on a local stage. The second concert in the series will take place in January 2015.
