ABOUT ABOUT

Please join us for the Virtuosi Christmas Concert - A Traditional
Holiday Celebration of Joy and Beauty, featuring Pianist
Aymeric Dupré la Tour, on Sunday, December 27

I invite you to share in the magic of the season with us as we present the Virtuosi
Christmas Concert - A Traditional Holiday Celebration of Joy and Beauty on Sunday,
December 27, at Trinity-on-Main in New Britain and Facebook Live at 5 p.m. (EST). Our
featured guest artist will be Pianist Aymeric Dupré la Tour.
Now more than ever, we need music that warms the heart and helps keep feelings of hope alive as we prepare to ring in the New Year. The Virtuosi Christmas Concert - A Traditional
Holiday Celebration of Joy and Beauty will include a selection of Polish and English Christmas music, as well as festive waltzes by Johann Strauss, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s joyful
“Symphony #29 in A Major”, and Franz Schubert’s melodious compositions for violin
and strings.

Guest artist Aymeric Dupré la Tour will perform Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Piano
Concerto No. 9 "Jenamy" in E♭Major, K. 271. Aymeric, a native of Lyon, France, studied
at the Conservatoire National de Région. He earned an Artist Diploma in organ and a
Master of Music in historical performance at Oberlin College, and a Doctor of Musical
Arts from the Juilliard School. His performances on harpsichord, organ, piano, and
celesta have taken him across France, the United States, Canada, and South America.
Aymeric is principal for harpsichord/organ/piano for the Chamber Orchestra of New
York. Last year, he performed in Connecticut Lyric Opera’s production of Jean-Philippe
Rameau’s Baroque opera “Daphnis et Eglé”.
The Virtuosi Christmas Concert - A Traditional Holiday Celebration of Joy and Beauty
will be performed at the Trinity-On-Main Arts Center. There are limited on-location
tickets available at a suggested donation of $25. The Trinity-On-Main Arts Center is
located at 69 Main Street (intersecting with Chestnut Street).
For those of you who are unable to join us in person, we will also broadcast the
performance live on our Facebook page. If you do not have a Facebook account, you can
