Young cellist Ivan Trabka will play a solo recital at St. James’ Episcopal Church on Sunday, July 6, at 11:45 a.m., as part of the church’s “First Sundays” concert series. The free-admission performance includes music by Bach, Dvorak, Fauré, Rachmaninov and Lalo. Hilda Banks Shapiro will provide the piano accompaniment.
Still in his teens, Trabka is among the Berkshires’ most exciting emerging musicians, and brings remarkable energy and passion to his playing. Ms. Shapiro is a long-established and well-known performer in the region. As part of the program, host Charles Olegar will be interviewing both artists.
“First Sundays” concerts are open to all without charge, with any free-will donations going to cover expenses.
