From the streets of Paris to the Hungarian countryside, we begin our second quarter-century with a program of beauty, light, and joie de vivre. Kodály’s fiddler greets us with wild abandon, Eric Moe transports us to a luminous, glowing past, and Debussy conjures a universe of shifting color and sensual dreams. Chausson’s piano quartet is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece of elegance, warmth, and endless mélodie.
"During intermission, concertgoers could be hear marveling at the program's breadth and wondering why other groups aren't as adventurous. Chameleon makes daring seem easy."
— The Boston Globe
