NARROWSBURG, NY — The Delaware Valley Chamber Orchestra partners with local businesses to present Narrowsburg Music Day, a series of music events taking place in Narrowsburg, on Sunday, September 6.

At 2 p.m., a free concert by the Chacho Ramirez Quartet will be held on the Main Street deck. Overlooking the Big Eddy by the eagle observation post, drummer Ramirez will be joined by Brooklyn bassist Tehrin Cole, guitarist Meir Rosenberger and pianist Joe Piela. The performance is sponsored by Narrowsburg Electric.

At 7:30 p.m., the 25th annual Music of Our Time Concert presents a program of new works by local composers Carol Bevan, David Tcimpidis and Joe Hannan. Bevan’s “At Meacham Lake—First String Quartet” will be performed by Anastasia Solberg’s quartet from Ellenville, which will also perform the world premiere of David Tcimpidis’s second string quartet, “On The Imitation of Christ—Eight Meditations of the Writings of Thomas à Kempis.” The quartet will be joined by bassist Eric Barsness and woodwinds to perform Hannan’s Tikka, based on a poem by the NewYork poet and librettist Mary Griffin, and Tcimpidis’s “Concerto Grosso,” which was originally written in 1999 for the Delaware Valley Chamber Orchestra at the request of orchestra’s founder Gloria Krause, a fitting reflection for this 25th anniversary concert.

Tickets cost $15 and are available at the door or by calling the Tusten Theater box office 845/252-7272.

At 9 p.m., the live music continues as the action moves to Gerard’s River Grill for a jazz jam extraordinaire, with Sandra Toll singing, Kevin Vertrees on piano, Bob Lohron bass and Papa John on drums. Guest artists are welcome. For updates, look for “Narrowsburg Music Day” on Facebook, or email dvcomusic@gmail.com.
