Guest Artist: MeadowSuite

MeadowSuite is a Greene County chamber ensemble comprised of Caitlin Ippolito on flute, Nancy Trembacz on clarinet and Erik Metsger* on tuba. The group strives to bring beautiful, exciting musical experiences to the area. All three musicians are classically trained and love making music together. The trio enjoys the challenges of working in all genres, making them a versatile group. Their camaraderie, which goes beyond music, brings depth and compassion to their rehearsals and performances. Tonight MeadowSuite will perform as a duo, but the trio will be back in full swing in the autumn of 2018. Follow and like the group on facebook**.
