Chopin in Montauk
At the Montauk Library
“Chopin and 19th-Century Paris,” a free concert by Anna Karkowska, a violinist, and her sister, Katarzyna Karkowska, a pianist, will take place at the Montauk Library on Saturday evening at 7:30.
The sisters, graduates of the Juilliard School and the Chopin Academy in Warsaw, will perform a selection of Chopin’s masterpieces, arranged for piano and violin by Pablo de Sarasate and Anna Karkowska, as well as music of his contemporaries. By including humorous commentary in the program, the sisters will explore the life and times of the composer as well as his music.
The library will also present a recital by the piano students of Marlene Markard and Ellen Johansen of East Hampton on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. A reception will follow.
