The Perlman Music Program presents Chase Park, cello, in a Stires-Stark alumni recital, the fourth of five this winter.
The program, presented via PMP from Home, will air starting February 18. It’s part of a free series of performances by accomplished PMP students generously underwritten by Sidney S. Stark and the Stires-Stark Family Foundation.
Many of them now hold leadership positions among renowned orchestras and faculties.
In 2012, PMP inaugurated this recital series at the Clark Arts Center on the Shelter Island campus. However, during the pandemic, the presentation shifted to a virtual format.
Alumni recitals are released monthly on Friday afternoons — watch them at PMP from Home.
The lineup for the rest of the season (follow links to learn more about the artists) is:
- February 18, Chase Park, cello
