On Sunday, April 24, at 3 pm, Tommy Mesa, cello professor at the SUNY-Purchase Conservatory of Music since the fall of 2021, will present some of his students in a recital in the Gathering Room.
Mesa, who has performed at Kendal a number of times, is a doctoral candidate at the Manhattan School of Music. One of his teachers was Julia Lichten, daughter of Susan Lichten and thus the connection between Mesa and Kendal began. Needless to say, it has thrived.
