The program will feature Mendelssohn’s Overture in C Major, thought to be her only orchestral piece; Kaprálová’s Suite rustica; Higdon’s Concerto 4-3, featuring the trio Time for Three; and Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 7, with local pianist Michelle Schumann. Before the performance and during intermission, representatives from Austin-based string shop Violins Etc. will be on hand with instruments, giving brief lessons on how to play.
