Upcoming Coffeehouse Concert

Emily Hutchinson & Svetlana Garitselova
Sunday, April 19, 2026
6pm-8pm
Walton Theatre
30 Gardiner St., Walton, NY
Music on the Delaware is pleased to present a flute and cello duo at its April 19, 2026, Coffeehouse at the Theatre. Flutist Emily Hutchinson will be joined by cellist Svetlana Garitselova in this Sunday evening 6:00 p.m. concert in the Andrea Retz Paternoster room of the Walton Theatre, 30 Gardiner Pl, Walton, NY.
The concert will be an evening of chamber music for flute and cello from a variety of musical styles and time periods. The program promises something for everyone, including a Latina reimagining of Bach's famous flute Partita; an instrumental setting of poetry by Robert Frost; and the thrilling "Jet Whistle" by Villa-Lobos.
Emily Hutchinson is a Catskills-based performer and instructor. Holding a B.S. in Flute Performance from Roberts Wesleyan University, she is on faculty at the Roberts Community Music School. She has appeared as a concerto soloist with four orchestras and has performed in masterclasses with Jim Walker, Paul Edmund-Davies, and Elizabeth Ostling, among others. In 2020, Emily was a winner of the National Flute Association Professional Flute Choir Competition, playing first flute at their virtual convention. Prior to that, she was a winner of the NFA Collegiate Flute Choir Competition, performing with Project Trio in Washington, D.C. Recent performance venues include Music on the Delaware, Asbury First United Methodist Church, Cobblestone Arts Center, Eastman School of Music, and Christ Church, London.
Svetlana Garitselova is a versatile cellist, who especially enjoys performing chamber music. She is the principal cellist of Las Vegas Sinfonietta Chamber Orchestra and has performed with Andrea Bocelli, Adele, Paul Anka, Nevada Ballet, Las Vegas City Opera, Candlelight concerts and as a soloist throughout North America, Europe, Russia and Japan. She is a member of the Syracuse, Binghamton and Erie, PA, Symphony orchestras. A passionate educator who enjoys teaching cello of all ages and levels, Svetlana is glad to be on faculty at Hochstein music school, maintains a private cello studio in Rochester NY and coaches chamber ensembles.

Coffeehouse at the Walton Theatre
Music on the Delaware (MOD)'s Coffeehouse began in the fall of 2009. This program complements our mainstage concert season at the Walton Theatre. The Coffeehouse events take place on the second floor of the Walton Theatre in the intimate Andrea Retz Paternoster Room on the third Sunday of every month from September through May (except December).
Coffeehouses highlight local and regional musicians playing a variety of types of music such as traditional, classical, jazz, and folk, and includes singer/songwriters. The events are free to the public, but donations are welcomed by MOD to help support operating costs. The site is excellent for acoustic music with only minor amplification needed for balance and voice. Volunteers provide desserts, coffee and tea. Attendees come and go as they wish during the relaxed, casual performances.
During the pandemic of 2020 through spring of 2021, our Coffeehouses went virtual. A livestream option continued through February 2024. On a more limited basis, we plan to include additional, occasional, virtual-only programs to attract musicians from far away.
We hope to see and welcome many of you at our next Coffeehouse!
