WESTWOOD LIBRARY SATURDAY CONCERT

Don’t miss our concert in the Westwood Library this Saturday, April 18th, at 3:00 p.m.

Harking back to the days before recordings, when arrangements of grand works could be enjoyed at home, the Montreal-based Trio Fibonacci - violinist Julie-Anne Derome, cellist Gabriel Prynn, and pianist Maxim Shatalkin - brings us Beethoven's iconic Fifth Symphony in a vibrant adaptation for piano trio. Their program also includes Smetana's Piano Trio in G Minor, celebrated for its lyrical beauty and rich Czech musical character.

Sponsored by the Friends of Westwood Library and the Los Angeles Musical Salon.
