Whidbey Island Center for the Arts Debuts Chamber Music on the Rock Series

A new partnership between Trio RASA and Whidbey Island Center for the Arts will make its debut on WICA’s Main Stage over two weekends this summer, June 24-25 and July 1-2, 2023. 

Performing will be Trio Rasa and the RASA 4/5.  Team RASA is comprised of Linda Vogt and Gloria Ferry-Brennan, violins; Roxanna Patterson, viola; Aniela Marie Perry, cello; and Sheila Weidendorf, piano. 

Sheila Weidendorf, pianist for the chamber music group, describes RASA as Sanskrit for “Qualities of art, inspiration.” Weidendorf explained that the partnership with WICA means that RASA will perform twice a year at WICA, a place they refer to as the musical group’s classical home. “Music is fun, we love what we do,” said Weidendorf. “And music is universal.” Here are the programs for the chamber music group’s debut performances at WICA: 

Program I: Mixed Metaphor! (Saturday, June 24, 7:30 PM ~ Sunday, June 25, 2PM)

  • Piano trios by Germaine Tailleferre & Chen Yi
  • Phantasy for Piano Quartet by Frank Bridge
  • Selection from Igor Stravinsky’s Duo Concertant with the Meander Dance Collective

Program II: All Dvorak, All the Time (Saturday, July 1, 7:30 PM - Sunday, July 2, 2PM)

  • Dumky Trio by Antonin Dvorak
  • Piano Quintet in A, Opus 81 by Dvorak

Review: DISNEY'S THE LITTLE MERMAID at The 5th Avenue Theatre

In these tumultuous theatrical times, it’s of little surprise that The 5th Avenue Theatre would head back under the sea with a remount of “Disney’s The Little Mermaid”. I mean, they just did it back in 2016. But it’s a crowd pleaser and I suspect a bit of a cash sea cow so here we are. But I still contend that there are two shows here. There’s half of a show that has the story and songs from the late great Howard Ashman that we all remember from the movie, and half of a show where we do our best to enjoy a Glenn Slater lyric. But no matter which half of the show you’re faced with, at least we still get the luminous Diana Huey back as Ariel, the titular mermaid.
