Finegold, cellist Emmanuel Feldman, and pianist David A. Pihl.<\/p>\n<p>The program will include Eugene Goossens\u2019 \u201cFive Impressions of a Holiday for Flute, Violoncello and Piano\u201d. Although  better known as a conductor, Sir Eugene Goossens was also a noted  composer, who wrote this piece when he was 21. It reveals both the  influence of the French Impressionists of the time (1914)  and his youthful appreciation of a bucolic vacation.<\/p>\n<p>J. S. Bach\u2019s \u201cSuite # 5 in C minor for solo cello\u201d\u2014described by the cellist Mstislav Rostropovich as &#8220;a symphony for <em>solo cello<\/em>&#8221; and the essence of Bach&#8217;s genius\u2014will also be on the program.<\/p>\n<p>William Thomas McKinley\u2019s world premiere of \u201cGroove Pieces for Flute, Cello and Piano\u201d includes ingenious, powerfully  concentrated movements, each displaying different clearly articulated  grooves (ostinatos), such as might be found in a  ragtime, blues, samba, or funk-jazz synthesis.   Of this piece, ECMP\u2019s  Artistic Director and flutist Michael G. Finegold says, \u201cMcKinley\u2019s  Groove Pieces\u201d are much akin to the music of George Gershwin but in the  present time. It is a virtuosic piece extraordinaire  composed for ECMP and especially myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Essex Chamber Music Players motto is \u201cMusic for the 21<sup>st<\/sup> Century, Music Treasures of the Past, New Music Premieres\u201d.  General Admission is $15, $10  for seniors and $5 for students. NECC students with an ID will be admitted free.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets may be purchased in advance online at MVarts.info.<\/p>\n<p>For more info: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecmp.org\" target=\"_blank\"> www.ecmp.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information contact Michael Finegold at <a href=\"mailto:ECMP314@comcast.net\"> ECMP314@comcast.net<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The music of composers Bach, Goossens, and McKinley will be performed by the Essex Chamber Music Players, in residence at Northern Essex Community College, at 2 p.m. on Sunday, April [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":137,"featured_media":30876,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30874","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
