2010 Music on the Hill Festival
Welcome to Music on the Hill's 2010 music festival. This June we will return to our roots, not only by bringing home more Rhode Island born musicians, but we will once again perform at St Luke's Episcopal Church in East Greenwich, the birthplace of Music on the Hill. The homecoming of our opening concert and superior acoustics of the St Luke's sanctuary will, we pray, inspire you to return to some of our other favorite concert settings! The air conditioned comfort of St Gregory the Great in Warwick will serve our audiences and musicians for a third consecutive year, as well as a return Culinary Concert at Temple Beth-El in Providence. Our performance at SS Rose and Clements in Warwick, will, this year, feature wonderful wines and song. We will also offer concerts in two new settings; East Greenwich's new United Methodist Church and the Rhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra Music School's state-of-the-art Carter Center in East Providence. Many RI-born musicians owe the start of their ensemble playing to the RI Philharmonic's youth program. By rehearsing and performing two concerts (one family and our finale) at the RIPO Music School, many of us find our way home to the starting-line of our musical beginnings.
An exciting new element to Music on the Hill's 2010 festival will be the reuniting of two former Cleveland Quartet members (Bill Preucil and James Dunham) to perform a Mozart masterpiece on June 5th. This special Gala will feature not only works by Bach, Bartok and Mozart, but food, wine, desserts and a comfortable setting for casual conversations.
The first two weeks of June, 2010 will be packed with Rhode Island born musicians returning to the Ocean State. This group of talented artists, both composers and performers, will sing, play and narrate their way into your hearts. I hope you enjoy the passion of performance and the sense of gratitude that will be shared with you, the audience!
Enjoy the concerts,
John Mark Pellegrino, Artistic Director
