The Vineyard Sinfonietta presents a spring concert Tuesday, May 26, from 3 to 4:30 p.m. at the Oak Bluffs Library.
Soloists Nan White (flute), Jan Hyer (cello) and Matt Pelikan (block flute) will perform in selections by Baroque composers such as Handel, Purcell and Bach all the way up in time through Mozart and Casals.
Encore selections will feature baritone Howie Marlin (and, in one piece. his daughter, Hannah) in three pop songs by Cole Porter, Jimmy VanHeusen and Matt Dennis, plus other songs made famous by Frank Sinatra.
All soloists will be accompanied by the string players of the Vineyard Sinfonietta, which has been playing for audiences since the 1940s.
Most of the selections reflect the pleasure that light music brings, and some of the optimism of the season.
The concert is free for all ages. Donations will be happily accepted.
