HICKORY, NC (January 8, 2020) — Celebrate the New Year as the Western Piedmont Symphony’s 55th season continues with the KAIA String Quartet, as part of this year’s Chamber Classics: Homecoming series.
Chamber Classics 3 with KAIA String Quartet will be held in Drendel Auditorium at the SALT Block on Saturday, January 18th at 7:30 p.m. This program includes pieces by Beethoven, Bragato and Piazzolla. Attendees will be sure to enjoy an evening of beautiful music performed by these exceptionally talented musicians.
If you can’t make the evening performance — join the KAIA String Quartet for lunch at our very popular Soup, Salad & Strings luncheon series at 11:45 am in the Keiser Community Room on Friday, January 17th at the SALT Block.
