Another free “Brown Bag Lunch Concert” is taking place Wednesday, time featuring musicians Sun Huh (violin), Nathaniel Shapiro (violin), Christopher Alley (viola), Kevin Flynn (Cello), and Kirsten Ahnell (clarinet).
The program features the famous clarinet quartet by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It was written in 1789 and was one of Mozart’s last compositions. The clarinet was a new instrument at the time and the quintet was written for his friend, clarinetist, Anton Stadler.
The lunch concert will be hosted by Trinity Episcopal Church (720 Ford Ave.) from 12:15-1 p.m. Concertgoers are invited to bring their own lunch to enjoy during the program.

The free lunchtime concert series was started in 2018 by Kentucky Wesleyan College Clarinet Professor Kirsten Ahnell. Ahnell’s intent is to bring music to the public. The programs are mostly classically oriented and feature small groups of musicians.
In order to help enlighten the audience, Ahnell acts as a moderator for the programs. She has the musicians speak about the composers and pieces they are performing, discuss their instruments and answer questions from the audience after the program.
