SAN GABRIEL MISSION PLAYHOUSE
320 SOUTH MISSION DRIVE
SAN GABRIEL, CALIFORNIA 91776
Tanya Tomkins, cello & Eric Zivian, fortepiano with Christopher Matthews, flute
A program celebrating the 300th anniversary of the birth of C.P.E. Bach is performed by a duo who “truly rise to the challenge…exuding a sense of fresh-minted excitement and discovery” (Fanfare Magazine), joined by a flutist of “exceptional and daring virtuosity”. San Gabriel Mission was founded during C.P.E. Bach’s lifetime and the grand, high-ceilinged lobby of the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse, now a cultural center for the town, serves as a gracious setting for a period-instrument performance of the composer’s works and those he influenced – from Haydn and Beethoven to court music of Frederick the Great.
