What's Happening NOW !
MIDWINTER CLASSICS SERIES: Beethoven  For the fifth year of our annual "Midwinter Classics" series, we will continue our examination of Ludwig van Beethoven's famous "late quartets" by presenting a concert dedicated to Beethoven's final works for piano and string quartet. Pianist and director Ian Scarfe will be joined by James Keene and Ellen McGehee on violin, Stephen Fine on viola, and Charles Akert on cello, for a series of programs that will contrast Beethoven's final works for piano, the "Six Bagatelles for Piano, Op. 126," and his final "String Quartet in F Major, Op. 135", with his very first "Piano Sonata in F Minor, Op. 2, No. 1" and Mozart's elegant "Piano Concerto in A Major, K. 414". The ensemble will present a residency featuring open rehearsals, pay-as-you-can concerts, and school performances in North State California, followed by a special series of concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area.

POETRY OUT LOUD: 
The voices of our youth command our future
Poetry Out Loud inspires in high school students the confidence to make themselves heard, using one of the most powerful tools at their disposal—art.
Poetry in education has experienced a Renaissance through Poetry Out Loud. Students are given the opportunity to interact with the words of the masters through recitation, building a relationship with the works and creating a sense of shared ownership branded by their own technique of volume, pitch, pace, and personal point of view.
California proudly holds court as home to the largest Poetry Out Loud competition in the country, growing steadily since its start in 2005. 

Trinity County will participate for the second year with Hayfork High School and Trinity High School as competitors.  2019, Jack Van Dine was the Trinity Champion.  Join us for the POL County Championship Competition, Feb. 6, 6pm at the Trinity Alps Performance Arts Center, Weaverville.   For school competitions and details;
