With spring approaching, the Western Springs Music Club held its March 9th classical music program at the First Presbyterian Church of LaGrange. The program covered a range of compositions from the early 20th century to recent times. The performance included:

Cellist Victor Sotelo performed Intermezzo e Danza Finale from Gaspar Cassado’s “Suite for Solo Cello;”

Trio -- Dennis Smith (clarinet), Sid Samberg (viola) and Thomas Zoells (piano) -- performed five selections from Max Bruch’s “Eight Pieces for Clarinet, Viola and Piano;”
