There is a change of program for the February 8 performance. The previously scheduled performance of Anti-Formalist Rayok by Dmitri Shostakovitch is being replaced with Young Apollo, Op.16 by Benjamin Britten with pianist Andrius Zlabys. Regrettably, this change came as a result of the sudden passing of Alexei Mochalov’s wife, the pianist Mariya Barankina at the age of 46, in Russia. Since a replacement for Mr. Mochalov could not be found for this infrequently performed work, the program had to be changed.
