QUILCENE — Concerts in the Barn will finish its eighth season with performances by Duo Monde G&G at 2 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The chamber music concerts will be in the barn at the Quilcene Lantern, 7360 Center Road, Quilcene.
The concerts are free, but reservations at www.ticketstripe.com/event-list/concerts-in-the-barn are encouraged.
The duo, composed of pianists George Lopez and Gulimina Mahamuti, will present “Sounds of Latin America,” a two-hand piano performance, on Friday.
The program will include selections from Astor Piazzolla’s “Fuga y Misterio Suite” Nos. 2 and 3, a series of pieces by Ernst Mahle, “Night” by Fazil Say, “Autumn in Buenos Aires” by José Elizondo, “The Girl in My Alphabet” by Errolyn Wallen and a paraphrase on Dizzy Gillespie’s “Manteca” for two pianos Op. 129 by Nikolai Kapustin.
The duo will be joined by soprano Laura Bohn, violinists Dawn Posey and John Weller, violist Melissa Lind-Ziegler, cellist Sarah Rommel and double bassist Joseph Kaufman on Saturday and Sunday.
The Saturday and Sunday concerts will include several movements from “La Bonne Chanson,” Op. 61 by Gabriel Fauré and Kurt Weill’s “Der Abschiedsbrief,” “Nanna’s Lied” and “Youkali.”
The concerts will close with Franz Schubert’s lieder “Die Forelle” Op. 32 D. 550 “The Trout” and his Piano Quintet in A Major D. 667, which is also known as “The Trout” because the fourth movement is a set of variations based on the lieder.
Concertgoers can sit inside on comfortable chairs, in the loft or bring chairs or blankets to sit on outside on the lawn.
Wine, cider, non-alcoholic beverages, coffee, cookies and ice cream will be available for purchase in the milking shed area, although concertgoers are encouraged to bring their own picnic lunches.
Bottled water will be available without charge.
Concerts in the Barn also will host Russian pianist Eleonora Karpukhova for a fundraiser gala at 2 p.m. Aug. 8 in the milking shed.
Tickets to that performance will cost $50 per person and will help to fund the 2026 season.
Karpukhova will perform works from Bach to Beethoven and Ravel to Rachmoninov.
