The Carson City Symphony Association will present an evening of music, conversation, wine and dessert at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at a private home in Jacks Valley, south of Carson City.
The recital will feature Pat Gardner and acclaimed violinist Gregory Maytan, who has appeared as concert soloist, chamber musician, and teacher in Europe, China, and the United States.
The recital is a benefit for Maytan’s recording of violin concertos by Ludwig van Beethoven and Swedish composer Amanda Maier with the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine. Guests will receive one of Maytan’s CD recordings.
Admission is free, and donations are welcome. Seating is limited; reservations are required. For reservations and the address and directions, call 775-883-4154.
Maytan has soloed three times with the Carson City Symphony and performed another house recital in 2009. On this trip, he’s scheduled to visit orchestra classes at Carson City schools.
