      This distinguished ensemble will perform an exquisite program featuring the music of Beethoven, Gao Ping, and Rebecca Clarke. The concert is presented by the Restoration Concerts Committee of the Friends of the South Pasadena Public Library and will be held in the Library Community Room in South Pasadena. Tickets will be available at the door for $25 or online at this website ($26).

      The members of the Mojave Trio are Genevieve Feiwen Lee – piano, Sara Parkins – violin, and Maggie Parkins – cello. The trio is dedicated to presenting a wide variety of classical music from the standard repertoire of the 18th-19th centuries to new works of our time. The ensemble performs all over Southern California including the “Sundays Live” radio broadcast from Bing Theater at the LA County Museum of Art, Monk Space, Pomona, Occidental and Scripps Colleges, and more.

      A versatile performer of music spanning five centuries, Grammy® nominated Genevieve Feiwen Lee, has thrilled audiences on the piano, harpsichord, toy piano, keyboard, and electronics. Sara Parkins is a Grammy award winner for the Best Chamber Music Performance of the complete recordings of the Haydn String Quartets, with the Angeles Quartet. Sara is also a prizewinner of the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition with the Stonybrook Piano Trio. Maggie Parkins is equally at home in chamber music, orchestral music, and the avant-garde. She has performed throughout the Americas and Europe, and her work currently ranges from concert recitals to multimedia, multi-genre collaborations.

      Restoration Concerts, a committee of the non-profit organization The Friends of the South Pasadena Public Library, has a goal to bring world-class music at an affordable price to the concertgoers in South Pasadena and surrounding communities. As the name suggests, net proceeds from the concerts provide for restorations, enhancements, and other benefits to the South Pasadena Library and Community Room.
