If you love dead, white, male German composers as much as we do – and are not (yet!) familiar with the greatness of Johann Nepomuk Hummel – this concert exploring the arbitrariness of fame is for you. In 1819, Hummel organized a concert for the world-premiere performance of one of his works; for the occasion, Schubert wrote the Trout Quintet for the same combination of instruments. Guess which piece is all anyone remembers? Salastina recreates this concert – so that you can be the judge of whether or not posterity was fair to jettison a composer with a name as awesome as “Nepomuk.” Wine and munchies reception to follow.

Main Series No. 5: Schubert And The Pummel Of Hummel

“I Like to Play” is an event for children age 4-9 and a parent or caregiver. Through teacher introductions and student performances, families hear and see most of the instruments taught at PCM. Children see their peers perform and hear about the reasons they chose to study their particular instrument. Parents and caregivers meet teachers in every department and ask questions about instrumental readiness, practicing, expectations, and the challenges of helping a child begin instrumental music lessons.
