Join us for the first noon-hour concert of 2025! This pay-what-you-can performance features two local musicians in the beautiful Memorial Hall auditorium at 9 Bailey Dr on UNB Campus.
Classical guitarist Steven Peacock and bassist Howard Baer explore a number of ways in which the classical and jazz idioms can intersect in music for these two instruments, not only stylistically but also in terms of form, melody, harmony and technique. Audiences can expect a few swing, blues and Latin jazz standards (such as How High the Moon, Bags Groove and Blue Bossa) along with new arrangements of primarily South American repertoire for classical guitar and several compositions (such as Ghislaine, Cassie’s Song and Rondo alla bossa) by the guitarist.
A certain classical sensibility, an improvisatory energy and immediacy, and an unmistakeable Latin flair join forces in what promises to be a unique and innovative program.

Established in 2019, the Elm City String Quartet was brought together by their passion for chamber music and a desire to share their love of quartet repertoire with their home town of Fredericton. With Victor Vivas and Mercedes Salazar on violin, Mark Kleyn on viola, and Emily Kennedy on cello, the ECSQ’s exciting and broad programming pairs works by today’s composers alongside celebrated quartet classics. Their first performance was a memorable evening in a small art gallery that was so packed, there were children sitting on the floor between their music stands. Since then, the quartet has been captivating New Brunswick communities with their broad programming and charismatic playing.
