Music in Motion chamber music event at River Bend Bookshop on August 12, 2022

"Music in Motion" is a Connecticut chamber music series founded by classical duo Nikki Pet (clarinet) and Aimee Toner (flute). These unique concerts use cutting edge technology to seamlessly integrate the performed  music with visual projections, creating a presentation of classical music enhanced by multimedia and live animated accompaniment. Through these concerts, Nikki and Aimee hope to entertain audiences with both the richness of classical music and the stories that these pieces tell.
