Program

  • Béla Bartók, Piano Quintet in C Major, Sz. 23

Ives explores the magical moment when the sun breaches the horizon, while Kevin Puts envisions legions preparing for cinematic battles. Ravel’s emotionally charged Madagascan songs stand at the precipice of a radical new style, with their provocative subject matter and atmosphere of ferocious exultation. Bartók’s Piano Quintet is a rarely heard gem filled with youthful passion and his love for the folk songs and csárdás from the cafes around Budapest, reminding us to take a chance, cross the threshold, and tip.

"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
