Program

  • Maurice Ravel, Sonata No. 1 for violin & piano “Posthume”
  • Richard Rodney Bennett, After Syrinx I for oboe & piano
  • Laura Schwendinger, Ghost Music for soprano, flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano & percussion – world premiere
  • Olivier Messiaen, Pièce pour piano et quatuor à cordes
  • Gabriel Fauré, Piano Quintet No. 2 in c minor, Op. 115

Faure’s second piano quintet is a graceful summation of his life’s work, with equal parts youthful enchantment and autumnal wisdom. Sir Richard Rodney Bennett reanimates Debussy’s nymph, and Ravel’s early violin sonata hangs in the air like perfume hinting at his ravishing colors to come. Laura Schwendinger muses on themes of loss, memory, and the passage of time in a brand-new work for our technicolor visions of the never-ending cycle of life.

"The brilliantly conceived program showed intellectual heft and musical inventiveness - what we've come to expect from Chameleon."
— The Boston Classical Review
