Returning to the Tea à Tempo stage on Wednesday, July 10 is Theodora Primes, who together with flutist Kathryn Cernauskas will present a delightful program of music for flute and piano by composers such as Bach, Chopin, Schumann and Fauré.
Primes is best known for her sensitive and emotionally immersive performances of the classic piano and organ repertoire. Primes was a protégé of the legendary Adolph Baller in her undergraduate years at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and the California Institute of the Arts where she received her masters degree.
Primes has performed solo recitals, chamber music and concerti in the U.S., Canada, Italy and Croatia. Primes is a Colleague of the American Guild of Organists and many of her performances appear on her theoprimes.com website.
Cernauskas has made Canadian music a focus of her performing, publishing and recording activities. Her work has included premieres of more than 100 compositions (many written for her), a solo CD and a music publishing company. She was coordinator of music at Douglas College and chair of the Canadian Music Centre, B.C. region. For more information see KathrynCernauskas.com.
