Indulge in the unparalleled artistry of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, an ensemble widely known for their impeccable interpretations and innovative programming, performed by a versatile, daring group of musicians. With a rich history of exceptional melodic endeavour, they captivate with their dedication to musical excellence and an adept ability to bring classical masterpieces to life.

 

The first concert features a vibrant string trio showcasing the brilliance of Beethoven’s early career, followed by Mendelssohn’s youthful and passionate F-minor Piano Quartet. The evening culminates with Dvořák’s majestic A-major Piano Quintet, a piece celebrated for its elevated symphonic scope. The second concert will take us back to Europe, on a journey comprising Gustav Mahler’s piano quartet, his only surviving chamber music piece, and the equally young and energetic first opus of Josef Suk. The recital’s grand finale will immerse us in Schubert’s sublime String Quintet, composed in the final year of his life and revered as one of the most treasured classical works. Don’t miss out on this journey back to the purity of sound.
