Founded in 2009, the Pyxis Piano Quartet are now in their third year as Artists-in-Residence at the Delaware Art Museum where they perform regularly to sold-out audiences. Their chamber music repertoire includes traditional and contemporary masterpieces for piano quartet (Piano, violin, viola and cello). This performance will include works by Strauss, Turina and Saint-Saens. Compelling, engaging, and informative, Pyxis’ performances have become amongst the most sought-after in the Delaware arts scene. The group takes its name from the Pyxis constellation, also known as the Mariner’s Compass whose symbol is the compass rose. The points of the compass rose represent the artistic directions the group travels together while recognizing the different backgrounds and experiences of its musicians.They perform regularly along the East Coast in concerts from Virginia to Pennsylvania and their 2011-2012 season includes return concert series engagements in Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.

Located in a 100 year old building on Main Street, The Mainstay is a cultural and artistic center for Rock Hall, a historic “waterman’s” town on the Upper Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay. The town’s healthy mix of of people with a deep heritage on the Eastern Shore and newcomers who have fallen in love with the area give it a vitality, a hometown feeling and a sense of community that is hard to beat.

The Mainstay is a warm friendly place with great sound and sight lines. With only 120 seats, there’s not a bad one in the house. It’s a listening room that’s almost as comfortable as your living room. Beer, wine and soft drinks are available. Our audiences range from local Rock Hallers and Eastern Shore residents to those who find their way here from Philadelphia, Annapolis, Baltimore, Washington DC and beyond.

The Mainstay offers more than 40 concerts a year. You can hear great jazz, blues, classical, folk …almost any form you enjoy. Check out “Performances” to see what’s coming up and here to see a list of some of our past performers.

So, come and see us in Rock Hall… our town motto is “nice people live here” and you’ll find a whole group of those people right here at The Mainstay!
