The La Catrina Quartet returns to Hickory with All-Latin Program

HICKORY, NC (October 14, 2019) — The Western Piedmont Symphony’s 55th season continues with the La Catrina Quartet, as part of this year’s Chamber Classics: Homecoming series.

Chamber Classics 2 with La Catrina Quartet, will be held in Drendel Auditorium at the SALT Block on Saturday, October 26th at 7:30 p.m. This all-Latin program includes pieces by Villa-Lobos, Piazzolla, D’Rivera, Plaza and Moleiro, and celebrates the upcoming Day of the Dead. 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 La Catrina Quartet for lunch at our very popular Soup, Salad & Strings luncheon series at 11:45 am in the Keiser Community Room on Friday, October 25th at the SALT Block.
