Now a summer tradition at CHAMBER MUSIC SOCIETY, Summer Evenings offers listeners three captivating programs of beloved chamber repertoire. These concerts offer new and longtime listeners the opportunity to refresh, rejuvenate, and reconnect during the summer. Enjoy the peerless artistry of CMS musicians, performing the greatest of the classics, in the transcendent atmosphere of Alice Tully Hall.
WEDNESDAY, July 10th
A rarely performed early gem by Franz Schubert opens the radiant fifth season of Summer Evenings. Following a youthful thread, the bucolic First Piano Quartet by the 34-year-old Antonín Dvorák leads to a striking Sextet for string quartet, bass, and a virtuoso piano part, composed and performed by Felix Mendelssohn at the astonishing age of 15.
SUNDAY, July 14th
The timeless allure of Mozart evokes emotions from listeners of all ages and places. It’s therefore natural to follow his sublime Violin Sonata with the warm glow of Johannes Brahms’s autumnal Clarinet Trio, composed in the twilight of his life, and Arensky’s hot-blooded Piano Trio, a chamber music classic that is the essence of the Russian musical spirit.
WEDNESDAY, July 17th
The eternal relevance of the Classical style continues to inspire concert programs of both depth and variety. In the hands of Haydn and Mozart, this style builds elegant structures housing music of great beauty; Schubert’s rigorous Classical training helped him launch the Romantic age with unstoppable conviction; and Robert Schumann, in the throes of emotional abandon, nevertheless built his ever-popular chamber works on the time-tested model of Haydn.
