A nice noon time concert (22 cents)

sometimes, I am not certain about the accoustics at the Church of the Epiphany, and today was one of those times. Betsy Hinkle's violin did not sound quite rich enough. But her playing was otherwise impeccable and the accompaniment of Jad C. Bernardo was first class. The main item on the program was Cesar Frank's Sonata in A for Piano and Violin, which is one of my favorites, and I had not heard it for a long time. They ended with two selections from Porgy and Bess, much less demanding, and very enjoyable. About 75 people in attendance by my count. The weather was beautiful outside, so the dozen or so homeless men who usually sit in the back of the church were not there.
