Salon Concert Series
In the year 2010, The Castle's Salon Concert Series will have 10 concerts. Each concert will feature a discussion of a Victorian composer, beautiful music by the Trillium Piano Trio, and luscious Victorian desserts & Tea.
The concerts this year are funded, in part, by grants from Artsbridge and the Ohio Arts Council.
SUMMER CONCERT
The Castle's Summer Salon Concert "Blue Night" is Friday evening, July 30 at 7:00PM.
The blues evolved at about the same time as ragtime and jazz in America. Ragtime had spectacular popularity and then faded from the public eye. Jazz reinvigorates itself every few years by assimilating tendencies from other art forms. The blues takes a fairly standard chord progress, blue notes (flatted 3rd and 7th intervals) and bent notes (microtonally adjusted pitches) to create music of melancholy nature with a poignant personal character that continues on its independent way. The Trillium Piano Trio will present evocations of the blues by Ravel and Gershwin, as well as compositions by W.C. Handy, Robert Johnson and other greats of the last 100 years.

Make your reservations early as this concert is always a sell-out.
