Isolation Series Week 10

May 30, 2020 by shepherd2007

As things reside in intensely uncertain territory, Angelique will be posting weekly short videos of selections from her cancelled performances.

This weekend would have featured an all-Beethoven program with the Yakima Symphony Orchestra, in observance of the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth year. Angelique has instead roped her brother Garrett Poteat into performing with her the Adagio from Beethoven’s Trio Op. 11 on only three days of notice. Huge thanks to Garrett!

P.S. If you’ve missed a week, check out the Isolation Series Archives page!
