A ‘cello-bration’ to sing in Davenport

Chamber Music Quad Cities will present a “Cello-bration” on Sunday, March 10 at 3 p.m., at the Trinity Episcopal Cathedral Parish Hall, 121 W. 12th St., Davenport.

A Cello-bration will be a fun-filled celebration of the prince of string instruments, the cello. QCSO principal cellist Hannah Holman and guest cellist Raman Ramakrishnan team up with CMQC co-directors Gregory and Thomas Sauer for an afternoon of solos, duos, and trios for cello and piano (from composers Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, and Popper).
