Chamber Orchestra Concert, The Capital Philharmonic of New Jersey

Sunday March 1, 2026
4:00 PM

Capital Philharmonic of New Jersey welcomes guest conductor Kenneth T. Bean for a chamber orchestra program that spotlights the rich dialogue between winds and strings — now enhanced by a live visual-art element with live painting by Kathleen Hurley Liao. The paintings will be auctioned at CPNJ’s Annual Gala after the concert (tickets to Gala are sold separately). The March 1 concert pairs Classical elegance, contemporary invention, and 20th-century vibrancy, tracing a narrative from Mozart’s poised clarity through Britten’s youthful boldness and Caroline Shaw’s inventive textures to the radiant ensemble writing of Bohuslav Martin?. During the performance, artist Kathleen Hurley Liao will create live paintings inspired by the music; those works will be offered at auction during the orchestra’s Annual Gala following the concert.
