World-Class Chamber Music — Palo Alto Concert

Pianist Ian Scarfe, violinist Petr Mašek, and cellist James Jaffe are scheduled to play a chamber program Sunday, April 26, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at 640 Emerson St. in Palo Alto. (meyhousejazz.com) The event listing says the trio will play “classical and romantic favorites,” with dance music by Ludwig van Beethoven and Johannes Brahms at the center of the program. (meyhousejazz.com) The Patch calendar item tied to the event exists, but the page did not return readable details in web retrieval. A separate event listing on Meyhouse Jazz identifies the performers, venue, and time. (patch.com) (meyhousejazz.com) The Palo Alto address in the listing matches 640 Emerson St., a downtown venue address that also appears in other local event postings this week. (meyhousejazz.com) (allevents.in) The concert is separate from Chamber Music San Francisco’s Palo Alto subscription series, which uses the 330-seat Schultz Cultural Arts Hall at the Oshman Family Jewish Community Center on Fabian Way. (chambermusicsf.org 1) (chambermusicsf.org 2) That series scheduled Quatuor Danel on April 13, Carion Wind Quintet on April 27, and Olga Kern with the Dalí Quartet on May 11 in Palo Alto, placing this April 26 trio date outside the main subscription lineup. (chambermusicsf.org) Scarfe’s program note, as quoted in the event listing, frames Beethoven and Brahms through their lighter side rather than their larger symphonic or quartet repertory. (meyhousejazz.com) As listed now, the concert is a one-night chamber event with named musicians, a fixed Sunday start time, and a downtown Palo Alto address. (meyhousejazz.com)
