Cellos and Chocolate

Cellos and Chocolate

UCelli: The Columbus Cello Quartet has almost finished recording our first CD (we have another planned!), and we will be playing the featured works at Worthington's McConnell Center on this Sunday, January 13, at 3. Columbus's own Dr. Mark Lomax II wrote Four Women as part of his 400: An Afrikan Epic, a larger work being premeiered (in part) on January 26th. We have paired this jazzy, exciting piece with David Baker's Refractions, a three-movement work of very lush, colorful jazz-influenced music by one of the world's finest jazz musicians and educators. A bonus will be our opener, the traditional spiritual "Down to the River."

The McConnell is a comfortable venue with good sound -- and art on display as well! I hope you will come support UCelli and hear some inspiring cello tunes. I will be brewing up some really good hot chocolate as we play, for afters.
