Only the Best

Ross Larson is a newbie to the series though for the last several years he's been accompanying the Zion Luitheran Choir along with supporting other performers in several venues.  Ross teams with Stuart Boehr, Bonnie Kangas, and Darcy Reich to deliver solo, duet, and trio numbers on piano and organ.

Ross Larson, who was born and raised in Grand Rapids, graduated from Grand Rapids High School this spring. He has studied piano with Anne Dimich since the 2nd grade and recently completed his senior piano recital. Ross has also studied organ under Jan Bilden with the assistance of the Arrowhead AGO Young Organist Scholarship. In the fall, Ross will attend the Carlson School of Management at the U of M, majoring in both a business field and piano performance.

Among the selections are an exciting Celebre Tarentelle by L. M. Gottschalk with Ross and Stuart Boehr on 2 pianos, classical, romantic, and folk numbers featuring the breadth and depth of Ross's keyboard skills, and a grand flourish of Galop-Marche by Albert Lavignac with Ross, Stuart Boehr, Bonnie Kangas, and Darcy Reich on piano.

St. Andrew's hosts Keyboard Kaleidoscope August 9 at noon.  The concert is as always funded by donations with an optional church luncheon at $6.00.
