cp2 to Open Spring 2015 Series at City Winery, 3/8

The Chicago Philharmonic Chamber Players (cp2) begin their Spring 2015 series at City Winery (1200 W Randolph, Chicago, IL 60607) on Sunday, March 8 at noon.

In Rags, Rhythm, and Reels, a jazz string quartet explores the popular music of the Roaring 20s and 30s, from ragtime to jazz to the classic cinema hits. This program features melodies and rhythms from some of the most beloved American composers of our time: George Gershwin, Duke Ellington, Scott Joplin, Jerome Kern, and Cole Porter. Their works not only stand on their own artistic merit but also were often featured in Hollywood's most popular films of the age.

Brunch will be available for purchase beginning at 11am and throughout the concert in the relaxed setting of City Winery, recently named best casual venue in Chicago by Crain's Chicago Business. Tickets range from $20 - $30 depending on section and can be purchased online at chicagophilharmonic.org or by calling (312) 957-0000. cp2's Spring 2015 series also includes performances on April 26 and May 31 at City Winery and March 1, April 12, and May 10 at Union Church of Hinsdale.
