The American Chamber Ensemble performs at Hofstra University on March 1, honoring founding clarinetist Naomi Drucker and longtime violist Lois Martin. The concert features works by composers such as Mendelssohn, Hurlstone, and Beach, along with a celebration of Martin through Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 6. The program highlights the legacy of Drucker with a performance of David Holsinger's On a Hymnsong of Philip Bliss, performed by an ensemble of distinguished musicians, including pianist Marilyn Lehman and clarinetist Mindy Dragovich. Directed by Lehman, this event marks a special tribute as ACE celebrates its 60th anniversary season.
