The concert will start at 6:30 pm at the Wichita Country Club and will be accompanied by dinner.
The Orfeo Trio was formed in 2012 in Wichita, Kansas, where they began their career as the official Piano Trio of the Wichita State University College of Fine Arts, School of Music. The three members of the Orfeo Trio (Pianist Julie Bees, Cellist Leonid Shukaev, and Violinist Evgeny Zvonnikov) are active performers with considerable chamber music experience. We thank the Orfeo trio for graciously donating their time to support this wonderful cause.
