Wednesday, February 13
The italicized, pictured artists are all performing this week in Georgia. The boldface rep was selected for a similar reason - it'll be performed locally. In the final hour, for example, conductor Claire Fox Hillard introduces us to the piece the Albany Symphony plays tomorrow with wife-and-husband soloists Kathleen Winkler and Timothy Pitts, the showy Grand Duo Concertant by Bottesini. Please see the calendar for details on all events, and go, go, go.
