(City of Pocatello Press Release, April 28, 2026)
As part of Marshall Public Library’s (MPL) Music in the Library program, MPL will host the Idaho State University Music Department String Area’s 2026 Portneuf Chamber Series Spring Concert Saturday, May 2, at 11:00 a.m., 113 South Garfield Avenue.
The May 2 concert will showcase a variety of string chamber works, including String Quartet No. 14 in G Major, K.387 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a string duo by Reinhold Glière, and the String Quintet in C Major by Franz Schubert.
Dr. Hyeri Choi, ISU Associate Professor of Violin and Artistic Director of the series, encourages community members to attend and “experience a variety of string chamber music and the artwork in the library.” She added that she hopes to continue sharing music with audiences in Pocatello and surrounding communities.
“Music in the Library is a great way for people to experience live music in a more informal setting,” said Amy Azzouzat, Public Services Supervisor at MPL.
The Portneuf Chamber Music Series began in 2019 at the Historic Firehouse, Pocatello’s first fire station, built in the late 1800s. The series features performances by members of the Idaho State-Civic Symphony, along with Idaho State University students and faculty.
The concert is free and open to the public. Those interested in performing as part of the MPL Music in the Library program can contact Amy Azzouzat at 208-232-1263 ext. 106.
