On Wednesday, July 3, from 12:10 p.m. to 12:40 p.m., the Free Admission Glendale Noon Concerts will feature violinist Jaqueline Suzuki and pianist Frank Basile performing works by Mozart and Schubert at the Sanctuary of Glendale City Church.

Glendale Noon Concerts is celebrating its 11th year of presenting free admission concerts every first and third Wednesday for Glendale and the Southland community. Listeners to the July 3 concert will hear the pair perform Mozart’s “Fantasia in C minor, K. 475” and Schubert’s “Duo Sonata in A Major, D. 574.”

Jacqueline Suzuki, violin, (right) is a longtime member of the Long Beach and Santa Barbara Symphonies. A native of San Francisco, she began her earliest chamber music studies on scholarship at the San Francisco Conservatory. She has performance degrees from the Mannes College of Music (BM), where she studied with William Kroll, and the California Institute of the Arts (MFA).

As a Los Angeles freelancer, she has performed with many ensembles and in many genres, from rock, jazz, Latin and Arabic to playing in the pit for the Bolshoi Ballet and onstage with the Three Tenors. She has recorded with diverse artists: Snoop Dogg, Neil Sedaka, Leonard Cohen, Whitney Houston, Bocelli, Lalo Schifrin, McCoy Tyner, Placido Domingo and many others. Suzuki appears on recordings by the Long Beach, Santa Barbara and Pacific Symphonies. She has spent summers at the Peter Britt, Oregon Coast, Carmel Bach and Cabrillo Festivals and has performed in a string quartet “in residence” on a raft trip down the Green River in Utah. Tours have taken her many times to Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, Canada, Europe, the Middle East and throughout the U.S.

Frank Basile is a conductor, musical director, pianist, organist, harpsichordist, accompanist, singer, church musician, composer, arranger, orchestrator and teacher. His career has brought him to Los Angeles recording studios, the choir lofts of churches throughout the United States and Europe, any number of small theaters in LA, and the stages of Walt Disney Concert Hall and Carnegie Hall. Versatility has been the hallmark of his work, which has included teaching at USC, Loyola Marymount University, Santa Monica College and Campbell Hall High School, directing community choruses, giving private lessons, composing, arranging and orchestrating for the musical theater stage, accompanying classical recitals and night club acts, creating concert series, performing harpsichord concertos and chamber music, and many other forms of musical expression.
