Andreas Welch, grandson of Charlie and Carol Hosford, Waitsfield, will be playing a piano concert to raise funds for the Mad River Valley Community Pantry. The concert is one in a series of concerts initiated by Carlton Cummiskey and designed to help local nonprofits. The concert takes place Sunday, July 13, in the Warren Church at 7:30 p.m. It is the fourth time Welch has offered a concert in The Valley; the first time, he was 7 years old.
Welch is an accomplished classical pianist. He attended the Manhattan School of Music on Saturdays for five years studying under Miyoko Lotto. He graduated Magna cum Laude from Columbia University this past June. During his years at Columbia, he was the pianist for a quintet and accompanied many soloists. He will be studying at Cambridge University in England this coming year.
The concert is free. Cash donations are welcome to support the Community Pantry.
