The Music Guild's first viola-centered concert brings an internationally acclaimed performer and pedagogue to a program with Los Angeles connections.

This is the first event of its kind in The Music Guild’s history: a concert placing the viola at the center. Internationally acclaimed as both a performer and a pedagogue, Tatjana Masurenko is joined by Los Angeles-born pianist Samuel Glicklich and soprano Alexandra Hotz. The program carries a genuine local thread: George Enescu performed in Los Angeles during his American tours in the 1920s; Ernst Krenek spent decades in Southern California; and Sergei Rachmaninoff made Beverly Hills his final home. Music by Glinka and Tchaikovsky broadens the program beyond that Los Angeles story.
