The Camerata New England Piano Quartet, hosted by the Great North Woods Committee for the Arts, will perform a Spring concert in the Tillotson Center in Colebrook on Saturday, April 18, at 7 p.m. It’s an opportunity to hear some beautiful music on a North Country spring evening.
Camerata New England has performed several times in the area and returns once again to help showcase the new grand piano at the Tillotson Center. The spring concert features Camerata New England performers Omar Güey on violin, Peter Sulksi on viola, Linda Galvan on cello, and Evelyn Zuckerman returns to perform on the grand piano. The concert will feature the music of Mozart, Turina and Brahms.
Since 2009, Camerata New England has been developing just the right combination of performers to create its unique sound. Essential to that sound is that every member of the ensemble is a highly qualified, expert musician. Each Camerata New England performer is distinguished in his or her own right, as well as a superb ensemble player. Based in New Hampshire, Camerata New England performs around the state and throughout New England.
Brazilian violinist Omar Chen Güey has performed internationally as a soloist with orchestras, in recitals and chamber music concerts throughout Brazil as well as the United States, Europe, Taiwan, Kenya, and the Seychelles.

She holds a BMP and Performer’s Certificate from the Eastman School of Music. As a Fulbright Scholar, she studied with Maurice Gendron in Germany and remained in Europe as first solo cello with the National Ballet and Dance Theater of the Netherlands, and as a member of the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra.
