Now this is an intriguing pairing.  Miranda Cuckson is one of the best New Music violinists in the City, with a broad repertoire that she plays splendidly. Ethan Iverson is a questing jazz musician, whose style manages to be cerebral and fun at the same time.  They'll play solo pieces and duos:  Cuckson's solo pieces and the duos having been written by a roll-call of leading neo-classicists, modernists, and avant-gardists from the second half of the 20th Century (and one brand new piece); Iverson playing a set of his own jazz compositions.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:   Sunday night is perfect for the eminently homeyVinegar Hill House.  If the food sometimes underachieves, the beverages and the ambiance never fail to overperform.
