Welcome to my next Groupmuse round, this time with the wonderful violinist Christine Wu who put together a talented quintet to perform Antonin Dvorák’s Bass Quintet in G major, Op 77 at my place.

What makes the piece so special is the unusual addition of the double bass which gives this Quintet a particular sonority, one that’s peculiarly well-suited to Dvorák’s sunny musical language.

I hope you are as existed as I am and that you will be able to join us that evening. Make sure to reserve a spot asap.

Small snacks will be served together with non-alcoholic refreshments. Please bring your own wine, beer ,or other beverages.

The doors open at 7pm and the performance starts at 7.30pm. Please try to be on time, since I can't turn off the buzzer. Just a side note: my loft is on the 5th floor of an old walk-up building.

Closest subway station is 'York Street' on the F line (it drops you off directly on Jay Street), otherwise 'High Street' on the A/C lines. The closest Ferry stop is "Dumbo"; from there you can walk along the waterfront park to my building on Jay Street.
Street parking is probably best in Vinegar Hill.

Looking forward seeing you all.
