TUESDAY<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Trio Arkel (violinist Marie B\u00e9rard, violist Teng Li and Winona Zelenka, cello) at the Richard Bradshaw Amphitheatre, noon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Canadian Opera Company concertmaster Marie B\u00e9rard is in for a busy day that starts with an hour of fine, free chamber music with two Toronto Symphony Orchestra colleagues — principal viola Teng Li and cellist Winona Zelenka — and ends with the opening night of Jacques Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffmann<\/em>, under COC music director Johannes Debus.<\/p>\n

    On the programme are two four-movement works that will take up nearly the full hour of the free lunchtime concert: an early String Trio<\/em> by Ludwig van Beethoven and Cloud Trio<\/em> by Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho.<\/p>\n

    Here’s an all-star taste of the Beethoven Trio<\/em>, featuring Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zuckerman and Lynn Harrell at New York’s 92nd Street Y in 1990:<\/p>\n
