The Penderecki String Quartet, approaching the third decade of an extraordinary career, has become one of the most celebrated chamber ensembles of their generation. Friday October 2: Now celebrating its 46th year, the 16-piece Jim Galloway’s Wee Big Band proudly makes its first appearance at Hugh’s Room under the leadership and musical direction of early band member Brigham Phillips on piano.
