Bespoke Concert with Erik Lindgren, piano; Thomasine Berg, flute; Mark Finklestein, bassoon; Torben Hansen, clarinet

SAVE THE DATE FOR THIS GREAT CONCERT! The Bespoke Consort will perform live at UU Middleboro on Sunday, January 12 at 3 PM. There is no admission at the door, but donations are gratefully accepted. The quartet will present a program of Classical-A-Go-Go! – chamber music-sans-boundaries that includes neo-Baroque escapades, Impressionistic tone poems, quirky Musical Novelties, Tangos, rollicking arrangements of Erik Satie, Raymond Scott, Leroy Anderson, plus original works.

Musicians include members of the Brockton Symphony, and features compositions and arrangements by Middleborough resident Erik Lindgren who has played for us many times in worship services and concerts. Lindgren has also recorded and performed with his New Music ensemble, Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, which has recorded 12 CDs and toured Internationally over their 45-year existence. Birdsongs’ music has been described as “cacophony meets classicism in a mesmerizing instrumental venture into the space age jungle.”

As a contemporary classical composer, Lindgren has a catalog of over six dozen works, ranging from solo piano pieces to chamber music to orchestral works. In 1978, Lindgren established Sounds Interesting Productions, a commercial recording studio and music production company now based in Middleborough, MA. National and regional credits include original scores for all three networks, PBS, Eastpak, Boston Globe, Basketball Hall of Fame, Jordan Marsh, Prentice-Hall, and the Christmas Tree Shops.

Hope you can make it to this concert – A pleasant time is guaranteed for all!
