Musical Masterworks at Saint Anne’s– Sunday, November 19th @ 2 PM @ Saint Ann’s Church- The Lymes’ Senior Center is co-presenting Musical masterworks with Saint Anne’s Church! Join us as we enjoy a performance by an ensemble called Decoda, an affiliate ensemble of Carnegie Hall. Their engaging creative programs and workshops were so well received and made such an impact on the community that the Musical Masterworks’ Board of Directors voted unanimously to make this in depth Community Engagement Program a part of MM’s mission. Decoda’s virtuosic musicians will perform creative chamber music– including a world premiere written expressively for this program– drawing from a dynamic continuum of styles, eras and instrumentations. There will be a reception immediately following the performance. This is a performance you won’t want to miss!
