Chelsea Music Festival - Midsummer Night Magic: Visions and Stories

The Festival is thrilled to invite audiences for a night celebrating the upcoming release of a brand new album by The Lee Trio, Midsummer Night Magic. With fantasies, legends and visions threading the evening’s works, the Trio will perform works by Uljas Pulkkis and Robert Schumann from its new album alongside Dvorak’s Dumky Trio, and Schumann songs and music by Thomas Ades performed by violinist Max Tan, baritone Daniel Gutmann, and pianist Maximillian Kromer.

Prior to the concert, join us for a 6:00pm talk by Dr. Carlos Diaz Salazar of Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute. Dr. Diaz Salazar studies the role of microglia in synaptic development and the brain’s capacity for healing, and will be exploring the ideas of brain connectivity, plasticity, and repair with audience members.
