The popular “Music at the Museum” concert series, founded in 2015, presents diverse live performances both on-site and recorded. These concerts are free and open to all ages thanks to the support of Alison Nowak and Robert Cane. Reservations are not required.
This coming Sunday May 14th, Mother's Day, Bennington Museum is pleased to present two stellar regional performers, Joana Genova and Gili Melemed-Lev. This violin/piano duo will perform works by Beethoven, Kreisler, Chopin, Telemann, Beach, Esmail, Boulanger, Grant Still, Joplin, and Piazzolla- a perfect follow-up to your Mother’s Day brunch or just a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
"What a great thing to treat your mother, a special woman in your life, or yourself to," says Deana Mallory, Director of Public Programming at Bennington Museum. "Joana and Gili are amazingly skilled musicians and know how to engage their audience to create a comfortable listening environment. I am particularly excited about the female composers included in this program. New Hampshire native Amy Beach's wide sweeping romantic music is so powerful, and Reena Esmail is an up and coming talent we don't get to hear nearly enough of, with beautifully haunting Indian influenced melodies." She continues, "Arrive early and prepare to be wowed!"
Music at the Museum concerts are held in the Ada & Paul Paresky Court at Bennington Museum, 75 Main Street, Bennington Vermont. Concerts typically last about an hour and a half and the Museum will be open with regular admission from 10am to 4pm should audiences wish to explore some of the new spring exhibits before or after the performance.
