In case you haven't heard, end of July/early August J. Starker will be performing up in Bellinham during the Bellinham Festival of Music (www.bellinghamfestival.org). I haven't seen much publicity about it 'til recently; first saw a blurb about it in that "Sforzando" publication out of Portland OR.
Anyway, he's doing concerts three consecutive days, Fri-Sat; programs include the Boccherini Bb concerto, Vivaldi Concerto fo Two Celli in g min (w/Thos. Heinrich), plus Bach Suites 1 and 2 and Cassado Suite for Solo Cello.
Tickets are already on sale. Only $60 for all three concerts, or around $20/ea.
Such a deal! I guess driving back and forth from Seattle-B'ham three straight days will be worth it!
