When & Where

  • Saturday, May 17, 2025, 7:30 PM
  • Sunday, May 18, 2025, 4 PM
First Church in Boston, 66 Marlborough Street

The runtime for this program is approximately 2 hours, 15 minutes.

Program

  • Arvo Pärt, Fratres for violin & piano
  • York Bowen, Phantasy Quintet for bass clarinet & string quartet, Op. 93 (1932)
  • Kevin Puts, Seven Seascapes for flute, French horn, violin, viola, cello, double bass & piano
  • Ludwig van Beethoven, Piano Trio No. 7 in B-flat Major, Op. 97 “Archduke”

Composed during Beethoven’s final descent into deafness and the beginning of his singular inward odyssey, the Archduke is a crowning achievement of the repertoire, a work of bountiful beauty and sweeping grandeur for a trio of virtuosos. Arvo Pärt’s bells fill us with reverence and elation, and Kevin Puts gives voice to the wonders of the ocean. We close our 27th season with an ecstatic meditation at the intersection of heaven and earth, sea and sky.

"One of the joys of hearing the Chameleon Arts Ensemble comes from Deborah Boldin’s whimsical thematic programming, mixing old and new, letting pieces echo and shed light on each other."
— The Boston Musical Musical Intelligencer
