Encores are traditionally the “dessert” of a concert, called upon after a meaty program of sonatas and more savory repertoire. Sometimes they are whimsical little things, charming and sweet, other times full of fire, flash and virtuosity.

Violinists from the studio of Danielle Belen join with collaborative pianists from the studio of Martin Katz in a FUN evening filled with a wide range of encore pieces.
