Annual Crocker Concert
The Annual Sacramento Saturday Club Crocker Concert was held Sunday, April 27, at CSU Sacramento, in the Music Recital Hall, at 3:00 p.m. Crocker concerts are being held at Sac State due to the remodel of the Crocker Museum, which should be completed some time in 2010.
This concert featured Ensemble Confluentes, which performed compositions by Baroque composers: Couperin, Bach, and Telemann. Please see the accompanying program notes for the specific pieces.
Members of Ensemble Confluentes are: Cathie Apple, Timothy Stanley, Charles Spruill, IV, and Sacramento Saturday Club's very own Alex Ives. Their biographies are included in the program notes.
Turnout for the concert was high, because of well-deserved and enthusiastic support for Ensemble Confluentes, and because of the efforts of our Publicity Board Member, Alex Ives, who arranged to have the Sacramento Saturday Club featured on Capital Public Radio's local radio program, Insight (listen).
Crocker Arts Board member and internationally respected pianist, Theresa Keene introduced the Crocker classical concert performance.
After several warm rounds of applause for Ensemble Confluentes, SSC President, John Cozza spoke to the audience about the history and mission of the organization and invited interested parties to visit our website or pick up a membership application and join our efforts to support aspiring music students in our community.
John then presented Mrs. Margaret Heilbron, 93, with an honorary lifetime membership plaque, in recognition for her many, many years of generous support and unflagging dedication to the Sacramento Saturday Club. It was due to Mrs. Heilbron's efforts that men were finally admitted to this prestigious organization.
On behalf of the men in our group, I thank you, Mrs. Heilbron!
