This is Austin’s longest running free weekly concert series (since 1980.) When Covid hit, we had to go online, but we kept going with online concerts each week, some live, some videoed. Covid changed many things, and one is the availability of musicians to play each week, so for now, we’ll have one live concert monthly, on 2nd Thursdays. The other weeks will be online, some will be videos of musicians who will be online with us, and some will be curated from YouTube videos, but we’ll continue to have great music each week.
Live concerts are streamed on https://www.facebook.com/CPCThursdayConcerts
Online concerts are on Zoom (link provided below).
In December, we’ll have weekly in-person concerts, leading up to Christmas.
This Week’s Concert is LIVE! Milupi Imbula on piano!
Note: Due to an injury of one of the members of the brass ensemble, they had to cancel, and are hoping to rechedule in July. However, we’re actually in luck, because this marvelous pianist is in town visiting Felicty Coltman, and was planning on recording a concert for us to show later, but with the cancellation, we’re able to have him live!
Live in-person!

Program:
Ballade No.1 in G minor Opus 23 Frederick Chopin
