Musaica Chamber Ensemble presents two performances of the second concert of its 11th season Monday, January 30 at St. Charles Avenue Presbyterian Church and Tuesday, January 31 at Munholland Methodist Church in Metairie. The concert, “Go Gentle into that Good Night,” is dedicated to the memory of Pete Wolbrette, who engineered recordings of all Musaica’s programs for their first ten years.

Bruce Owen, assistant principal viola with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra and instructor of viola at the Loyola University College of Music, joined Joe Shriner at the WTUL New Orleans studio to talk a little about Pete Wolbrette and how the concert’s program pays tribute to his life.
