Pittsburgh New Music Net

Among the many gifts Eugene and Natalie Phillips have given to the world of music (pristine performances, inspired teaching, masterful compositions) not least is 50% of the Orion String Quartet in the form of sons Danny and Todd. Tonight, the Orion will perform Eugene’s composition A Tribute for Two when they open the season for the Pittsburgh Chamber Music Society at Carnegie Music Hall. A reminder that all Chamber Music Society concerts are starting at 7:30 this season, and if you visit Union Grill (on Craig St.) after the concert, a portion of the proceeds from your purchase will be donated to the Society, so bonus!
