SARASOTA, Fla. (October 2, 2018) –The Perlman Music Program/ Suncoast celebrates the 15th Anniversary Perlman Music Program (“PMP”) Sarasota Winter Residency throughout the fall and winter of the 2018-2019 Season. Since 2003, PMP founder, Toby Perlman, along with her husband, internationally-acclaimed violinist and conductor Itzhak Perlman, their students, faculty, and staff, have called the Suncoast their wintertime home-away-from-home. Patrons praise the annual Sarasota Winter Residency and Celebration Concert as “highlights of the arts season in Sarasota.” The 15th Anniversary celebrations begin in November.
The season will kick off on Thursday, November 1 at 2:00 p.m. with “A History of Klezmer Music to Modern Jazz,” led by local arts and history educator, Baila Miller. This special event will feature a lecture and multi-media presentation focusing on Klezmer music and how it influenced the rise of modern jazz in America. It’s the perfect precursor for anyone attending Itzhak Perlman – In The Fiddler’s House on December 17, or for those interested in learning more about the history of this Jewish music tradition.
