Landscapes for Music
THIS IS JUST ONE of the stunning photos by Michael Kahn (it’s huge) at Martin Gallery on Broad Street. And the serenity of his work could hardly have been better complemented than by a recent performance in the gallery by Chamber Music Charleston.
I had heard four of the five musicians before, so I knew what to expect—simply the best. But I was in for a new treat with flautist Regina Helcher-Yost who swept me away with her melodic interpretations of Saverio Mercandante and Arthur Foote. The acoustics in the spacious gallery also carried a long sound that was nice on the ear.
Below is a short video of excerpts from their performance.
