7/17 – A Summer Schubertiade

Thanks to everyone who came to Rush Hour’s piano four hand concert, featuring the music of Schubert performed by pianists James Giles and Deborah Sobol! From a military march to miniature Viennese waltzes and dances, the concert concluded with a masterpiece of the piano four hand genre: Schubert’s Fantasia in F minor.

One piano + four hands = a lot of technical adjustments and a huge, full sound!

Sporting Rush Hour’s special t-shirt, St. James’ very own Henry Leach is culturally curious!
