Event description

ANNA CHUNG clarinet & Katherine Shin piano

The clarinet is known for its capacity to fit comfortably within many genres. While primarily a melodic instrument, its range of colours means it has a character somewhat like that of a chameleon. For this program, Anna has selected a diverse range of classical music that celebrates the chameleon-like character of the instrument.
