Emi Kagawa
The ORCMA Chamber Music Series continues with a concert by the very popular “home teamâ€â€”The Cumberland Piano Trio—on Saturday, Feb. 8, in Oak Ridge. The Cumberland is an outgrowth of Oak Ridge’s own “Isotone†group, which has since blossomed into a regional music attraction.
This concert will feature the world-renowned pianist Emi Kagawa. A native of Osaka, Japan, Kagawa has been active as both a soloist and a chamber musician, a press release said. She has performed extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Italy, and Japan.
The concert starts at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 8 at the Pollard Auditorium, which is at 210 Badger Ave. in Oak Ridge. [Read more…]

The Isotone concert on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Clayton Performing Arts Center at Pellissippi State Community College will offer an assortment of instruments, talents and music in honor of a great Russian physicist and human rights activist.
The instruments range from the school’s new Steinway concert grand piano to a violin to glass beakers, flasks, and test tubes. Remember, isotone is both a music and physics term.
The talents include Japanese world-class pianist and East Tennessee newcomer Emi Kagawa, composer Andrew Sauerwein of Belhaven University in Jackson, Miss., and violinist and former concertmaster Susan Eddlemon and her husband Scott Eddlemon, principal percussionist with the Oak Ridge Symphony Orchestra and founder of the Oak Ridge Civic Music Association’s Isotone Concerts.
