The biggie of the weekend will be the F. John Adams production of Mozart's Grand Mass in C minor. As usual, Adams has assembled a promising group of performers, including well-known local soloists, the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra, the Smith Glee Club, and F. John's own talented Harvard Glee Club. A Mozart chamber work will also be on that program--the sublimely beautiful clarinet quintet, played by a group which includes David Kass and HRO competition winner Lynn Chang. Good Mozart performances are rare, so this concert should be a rare pleasure.

On a slightly smaller scale, Gerald Moshell will take time off from Magic Flute rehearsals on Friday to join Marta Dabezies in two-piano works by Mozart and Schumann: also on Friday, Ronan Lefkowitz, Richard Kogan, and others will play music by Bach, Handel, and others.
