Concordia Chamber Players presents "Life Stories" — an afternoon of chamber music where composers transform real human experiences into sound. The program features Richard Danielpour's "Four Angels," Bedrich Smetana's String Quartet No. 1 "From My Life," and Valerie Coleman's "Shotgun Houses," performed by an extraordinary ensemble: Shaquille Southwell (clarinet, Principal Clarinetist of the Louisiana Philharmonic), Siwoo Kim (violin, First Prize winner of the Tibor Varga International Violin Competition), Melissa White (violin, founding member of the Grammy-winning Harlem Quartet), Leonid Plashinov-Johnson (viola, San Francisco Symphony), and Grammy-nominated cellist Michelle Djokic.

A free open rehearsal takes place the day before at the James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown — watch the musicians prepare and stay to ask them your questions.

Having artists of this caliber perform right here in Bucks County is something truly special, and a beautiful way to spend a spring Sunday afternoon.
