Program

  • Gabriel Faure, La chanson d’Eve for soprano & piano, Op. 95
  • Helen Grime, Luna for flute, oboe, clarinet, French horn, piano & percussion.
  • Arthur Benjamin, Le Tombeau de Ravel “Valses-caprices” for clarinet & piano (1949)
  • Theo Verbey, Four Preludes to Infinity for oboe & string trio
  • Robert Schumann, Piano Quartet in E-flat Major, Op. 47

Imagination, poetry, and invention come together at the hazy intersections between sleeping and waking, life and dreams. Fauré explores the sensual delights of Paradise while Helen Grime conjures the harvest moon. Theo Verbey illuminates celestial wonders, and Schumann gives us an exhilarating reflection of humanity in all its complexity and contradiction.

"Planning a good chamber music program is an art unto itself, and few in town have mastered it so persuasively."
— The Boston Globe
