If you clap loudly enough at the end of the Kandinsky Trio's performance Saturday night, you'll definitely be rewarded with an encore. In fact, you can plan on it - they already have.
Blame it on hurricane season that the chamber music group will be getting wet and wild.
The group's ``once-a-year wacky encore,'' cellist Alan Weinstein said, will be a medley of ``Wipe Out,'' ``Walk, Don't Run,'' ``Surfer Girl,'' ``Miserlou'' (the theme from "Pulp Fiction") and riffs from the opera ``Carmen'' (famous for the ``Toreador Song'' as in ``Toreador-a, don't spit on the floor. Use a spittoon, that's what it's for.'') and the James Bond theme. All the pieces have a surfer beat. Watch for Weinstein's piano-pounding drum solo on ``Wipe Out'' - he couldn't bear beating on his 200-year-old cello.
An encore at a home performance ``depends on the last piece and the Brahms Horn Trio's last movement really smokes,'' Weinstein said. Imagine.
The performance is at 8 p.m. in Olin Theater, Roanoke College. Tickets are $9. Call 375-2333.
