Altamura Legacy Concerts at Princeton UMC throws a unique musical marathon birthday bash for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart!

On Sunday January 28 at 3:30 pm more than 20 esteemed pianists and musical colleagues of Artistic Director Cristina Altamura will come together Princeton United Methodist Church (corner of Nassau and Vandeventer Ave.) to perform Mozart’s glorious music and raise funds for Legacy Arts International’s All-Abilities Music Creation Program. “Among the invited artists are celebrated musicians and teachers such as Phyllis Lehrer, Ena Barton Bronstein and Ingrid Clarfield who have for decades consistently contributed to the excellent standard of music making in Princeton’s extraordinary piano teaching scene” says Altamura.

The festive three-hour program features short works, movements and arias from Mozart’s spectacular body of work as well as composers who were influenced by him. At the top of each hour, students from LAI’s All-Abilities Program will perform to give the audience a taste of the music being written for their special abilities by world class composers.

Hosts ALC Artistic Director Cristina Altamura with Adam Sliwinski (Sō Percussion) will emcee the concert, introducing the artists and bits of information about each work. A Coffee/Tea bar organized by Illy At Earth’s End opens at 3:30, the musical festivities start at 3:45pm.
