Winter Chamber Music Series

in a beautiful, intimate space.

4:30 p.m.

Award-winning classical guitarist and composer Jay Kauffman performs Mozart to Merlin, as well as a few of his own pieces.

Andrew Porter, writing in the

New Yorker, called Kauffman “an exceptional soloist, matching technical accomplishment with interpretive ardor.”
