Alberta Rose Theatre, 8 pm (all ages)
Protégé Project Club Concert III
 There's no doubt about the deep influence of bassist Edgar Meyer, but just to prove it we've put together an eclectic program with both his son (violinist/composer George Meyer) and one of his star pupils, bassist Rex Surany. The Amphion Quartet (who has collaborated with Meyer and participated in his workshops) is also featured, as are our first ever Protégé brass. Tying this all together, of course, is Edgar Meyer himself, who performs on two pieces. |
