The music continues with the second installment of the in house Spring Concerts when the Campanile Chorus takes to the stage. Come to our Auditorium on Sunday, May 5th, at 2:00pm to enjoy the voices of the Campanile Chorus performing their Spring Concert.  In addition to the Chorus in its entirety, you will also be entertained by several different ensembles made up of the choral members.  Please take note that for the Spring Concerts, the Campanile Chorus and the Lakeland Community Concert Band will be performing on separate dates.  The Band's Spring Concert will take place on the preceding  Sunday.  Be sure to come early as the only thing that rivals the talent of the singers is the size of the audience they attract.  Suggested minimum donation of $5.

The students from our Conservatory get a chance to "show you their stuff" with a program comprised of  their accomplishments and strides they have made through the course of the past year's instruction.  Come and see them while you can because today, it is Campanile's stage but tomorrow.......who knows.  Free to the public.

“Joyful” is the word that audiences have used in describing the Kat Trio live in concert.

This unique classical ensemble known as the Ekaterinburg Classical Trio, aka the Kat Trio, was born in the summer of 1998 in Ekaterinburg, Russia. Vasil Galiulin, Victoria Gorbich, and Vladislav Gorbich, all graduates of the Ural State Conservatory, decided to take their love of music and their violin-clarinet-piano arrangements to festivals and concert venues throughout the Urals. They spent much of that summer playing to enthusiastic audiences in town halls and indoor stages.

The audience feedback was encouraging, even inspiring, all the while reinforcing the overpowering feeling that their calling was to take their new impressions of classical music and their heartfelt performances to a much greater audience. Their first US tour in the spring of 2000 was a major success and these world class players return as often as possible to play for their appreciative American audiences.

On the Kat Trio’s 2006 Tour of the US, violinist Victoria Gorbich and clarinetist Vladislav Gorbich were joined by pianist Viatcheslav Ovchinnikov. Like Victoria and Vlad, Viatcheslav (nickname: Slava) is a graduate of Ural State Conservatory in Ekaterinburg.

During their work on doctorates at Arizona State University, Victoria and Vladislav Gorbich were joined by pianist Mauricio Arias, from Bogata, Columbia, a graduate of Fundacion Universitaria Juan N. Corpas, for two tours.

Victoria and Vladislav were touring during the summer of 2010 with Patrick Christians, a graduate of Michigan State University, as guest pianist.

During 2011-2012, the Kat Trio was touring as artists-in-residence with Wisconsin Public Radio and the Chazen Museum of Art. For that tour Victoria and Vladislav were joined by pianist Julie Page, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin – Madison.

Today “The Kat Trio” is Victoria Gorbich, Vladislav Gorbich and Melody Ng. Victoria and Vladislav are doctoral graduates of Arizona State University. The newest member of the trio, pianist Melody Ng, is a doctoral candidate at the University of Wisconsin – Madison.

Victoria, Vladislav, and Melody are on the road presenting the trio’s unique Russian arrangements and transcriptions of timeless melodies. The Trio’s concerts feature classical works, well-known inspirational songs, and even American pop standards, including Scott Joplin’s rags.
