Music for Farrar Pond

Come hear sumptuous chamber music in a beautiful setting overlooking the Farrar Pond and Pincushion Island at the home of Laura Bossert and Terry King on Sunday, May 4 at 5 p.m. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be followed by a chamber music concert featuring Brahms’ String Sextet, Opus 18.

The Farrar Pond Associates, along with associated trusts and the Lincoln Land Conservation Trust, work to maintain Farrar Pond in its natural state. “There are a number of invasive plant species that need to be controlled to preserve the pond, and we are dependent on donations to accomplish this often costly process. What better way to support Farrar Pond than a glorious evening of music, refreshments, and getting to know each other?” said William Winchell, president of Farrar Pond Associates.

The principal musicians will be Laura Bossert, violinist/violist and a Silver Medalist in the Henryk Szeryng International Violin Competition, and Terry King is a Grammy-nominated cellist and a protégé of the legendary Gregor Piatigorsky. He is on the faculty of the Longy School of Music and the Hartt School of Music and is a director of Lyricafest, a summer chamber music festival for college and conservatory students.
