After a yearlong hiatus, I am incredibly excited to announce a relaunch of our Concert Series at Kalmia Garden. Over the past 10 years, all of our musicians have expressed sincere gratitude for all that you have done to support us. With all of this generous support from the community and enthusiasm from the musicians, we decided to take a summer break to reimagine what these concerts can be, and what we can do to deepen our connection to community and arts in Durham!
In order to launch this new phase, we are hosting a celebratory Gala Benefit Performance for FREE on October 5 at 4pm. This concert helps us give back to the passionate music-lovers in Durham, while raising funds to make this new vision come to life. Presenting concerts throughout the year introduces new costs to our team, and none of it will be possible without your support. Please join us as we reshape the future of music performance in Durham.
A special event like this requires special performers. We are thrilled to be joined by two internationally renowned performers: violinist Jinjoo Cho and pianist Kyu Yeon Kim. Jinjoo is the recently appointed violin professor at Northwestern University, Artistic Director of ENCORE Chamber Music Institute, and acclaimed soloist. Joining us from Seoul National University, Kyu has won prizes in several competitions including Dublin International Piano Competition and Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition.
