Flute and Harp Duo Opens 54th Evergreen Concert Series on Friday

The Evergreen Concert Series — one of Baltimore's longest-running chamber music programs — opens its 54th season on Friday, Oct. 20, with flute and harp duo David Fedele and Victoria Drake.

The performance, to be held at 8 p.m. in the Bakst Theatre at Evergreen House, will feature music by Handel, C.P.E. Bach, Debussy, Bartok, de Falla, Jongen and Persichetti. Tickets are $15 for Evergreen members, $20 for nonmembers. Due to limited seating, reservations are recommended. Advance tickets are available online at www.missiontix.com or by calling 410-516-0341.

Since 1952, the museum's concert series has presented more than 200 performances by renowned musicians and outstanding emerging artists in Evergreen's intimate theater, designed by avant-garde Russian-born artist Leon Bakst, and in its 1870s Carriage House. Audiences mingle with performers at a post-concert reception and enjoy a shared experience they won't find anywhere else.

Funded in large part by the Evergreen House Foundation, the chamber music program continues former owner Alice Warder Garrett's legacy of supporting musicians and inviting audiences to interact with them.

Other concerts this season include the Jupiter String Quartet on Nov. 10; Adaskin String Trio with Thomas Gallant, oboe, on March 23; and cellist Matt Haimovitz on April 27. Complete concert information is available online at www.jhu.edu/evrgreen/concerts.
