A Fundraising Event Benefiting Musaics Cellist Nick Reeves
Join us at the home of Sharona Barzilay for an evening of food, wine and music featuring cellist Nick Reeves. Doors Open at 4:00 PM with music to follow at 4:30 PM. A buffet dinner will immediately follow the concert.
Nick has participated in many Musaics of the Bay projects and residencies over the years, and he is beloved by our community not only for his gorgeous cello playing, but also for the warmth of his personality.
