MUSIC IS in the AIR, IN-PERSON, and FABULOUS

Welcome to the 34th season of The H. J. BRUMAN Summer Chamber Music Festival (2022) at UCLA. The full program 2022 is given at their cite above.

Let us celebrate in-person events with live music at the historic Powell Library Rotunda, 12 noon to 1 PM.

Today's live concert, Tuesday, August 2nd, was a treat for all of us in attendance who had the opportunity to spend one hour with the COLON DUO, Emilio and Cara Elise Colon.

The Program consisted of a wonderful mix of pieces ranging from F. J. Haydn (1732-1809) to

David Popper (1843-1913) Hungarian Rhapsody, op. 68, arranged by Emilio Colon.

Personally, I admire the Colon Duo, remembering their performance via zoom during the Summer 2021.

The duo is on the faculty at the Indiana University, Bloomington. In addition, they are invited to teach, and to perform with well known symphonies, chamber orchestras, and as soloists. We hope they visit us in the Summer of 2023.

Here are the dates for specific programs during the
2022 H J Bruman Summer Chamber MUSIC FESTIVAL

All five BRUMAN's concerts are held at the UCLA's Powell Library Rotunda. It was constructed from 1926 to 1929, in the romanesque revival architecture design. In 1951, Ray Bradbury wrote an early draft of his Fahrenheit 451 using typewriters that were available for rent.

Thee next concert is on Tuesday, August 2, with COLON DUO

This is a part of the Rotunda where all concerts are performed

We recognize the Playa Cafe where we sip, meet, and greet our friends. 

Today, a few of us in the FWC Music Section enjoyed the art, curated by Victoria Steele, 

new landscape, and delicious scones and coffee. Highly recommended!

The Cypress Bar & Lounge, located on the lower level of the Faculty Club,
has been known as the hub for socializing with live music

The redwood panel, designed in 1964 by Evelyn Ackerman (1924-2012), is one among the special features of the Cypress Bar & Lounge. This will be the place for our October 19th Music Section gathering. We will welcome the Music Section members in addition to everyone else from the Club. The program will be announced in the Faculty Club Newsletter.
