A Conversation with Amerigo Trio and A Tribute to Bacharach

Piedmont Arts Podcast

In the month of October, Davidson College will present several great concerts. Renowned vocal group Stile Antico performs a program celebrating William Byrd. And the Amerigo Trio, whose members are all internationally acclaimed musicians, is in concert. And later in the month, Davidson faculty members will present a benefit tribute to Burt Bacharach. On this episode of Piedmont Arts, we talk to artists who will be appearing in two of those concerts. Amerigo Trio members Glenn Dicterow, former concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic, and Karen Dreyfus, Grammy-nominated violist, tell us about the unique experience of playing in a string trio. And emeritus Davidson faculty members Cynthia and Bill Lawing talk about why they wanted to honor legendary songwriter Burt Bacharach.
