MILFORD, PA — The Calidore String Quartet will perform Bach, Mozart, and Mendelssohn at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 10 at the Milford Theatre.

Although many of us often lose some skills as we grow older, most classical music composers either never got a chance to grow old, or they enjoyed a long life during which their abilities got stronger rather than weaker. This concert includes parts of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Art of Fugue, a piece by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Quartet in D Major, K. 575), and one by Felix Mendelssohn (Quartet in F Minor, Op. 80). Bach lived to sire 20 children, while Mozart and Mendelssohn died young.

Tickets cost $20, or $15 when bought in advance at www.kindredspiritsarts.org, or in person at Books and Prints at Pear Alley (570/296 4777). Children under 15 will be admitted free.

Kindred Spirits Arts Program, the producer, is a nonprofit organization of volunteers that has been bringing entertainment to area audiences and programs to school students since 2002. Visit www.kindredspiritsarts.org.
