four
instruments.Gulia Gurevich

Tchaikovsky Moscow Conservatory)
plays clarinet and
Anastasia Dedik (1st prize winner

music standards to such exotic gems as Armenian
composer Aram Khatchaturian's soulful “Trio for
Violin, Clarinet and Piano” to S. I. Glick’s festive
“The Klezmer’s Wedding.”“Serenade” by American composer Peter
Schickele (aka P.D.Q. Bach) is the grand finale of
every concert.
