If you're searching for a melodious way to spend your Friday and have an ear for the classical, clear your calendar for October 11. The Central Arizona Flute Ensemble will court the ears of Peoria residents with two free performances that promise to resonate with flute aficionados and casual listeners alike. For early risers or those taking a siesta from their daily grind, they'll breathe life into Sunrise Mountain Library at 11:30 a.m., located at 21109 N. 98th Avenue.
For those who prefer a later dalliance with the arts, a secondary show unfurls at 3 p.m. at the Peoria Main Library, stationed at 8463 W. Monroe Street, so mark your planners and sync those smartphones. According to an announcement on the City of Peoria's official website, these performances are part of a series aimed at bringing cultural experiences to the West Valley. With the strain of weekday bustle, a midday reprieve in the form of live music could be just the ticket – and, in this case, you won't even need one.
Whether the Flute Ensemble will feature their signature classical repertoire or branch into contemporary pieces remains a note-unrevealed. What is certain is that attendees can expect a showcase of skill and perhaps, an introduction to the flute's versatility. In any event, it's an accessible opportunity for the community to witness local musicianship and abandon the lull of background playlists for a live performance.
