Now in its seventh season in Scottsdale, Close Encounters With Music brings together sublime chamber music, distinguished performers and musical commentary, all in an intimate setting. City Lights/Rural Utopia - Urban and Pastoral Music will juxtapose bucolic music, associated with the flute and evoking the countryside, with urban music, reflecting the quickened, jazzy pulse of the city. Flutist Eugenia Zukerman will make her series debut and join the Amernet Quartet, pianist Michele Levin and cellist Yehuda Hanani in a program that includes Paul Taffanel's Andante Pastoral and Scherzettino, a charming French work for flute and piano; the Trio for Piano, Flute and Cello by Carl Maria von Weber; works by Copland, Couperin and Bach; the Arizona premiere of Urban Quartet by Frederick Kaufman; and the Scherzetto from Berkshire composer Stephen Dankner's String Quartet No. 7. A reception with the artists will follow the performance.
