This summer, we explore the richness of chamber music through a unique and fascinating lens.
Focusing on the art form’s most celebrated instrumental combinations, seven programs offer a sonic array that captures the essence of chamber music, from the intimate duo to the orchestral octet. Classics of the literature appear alongside appealing discoveries, with strings, pianos, winds, and voices exploring the magic of chamber music instrumentation from the eighteenth century to the present day. The bountiful variety of timbres and dialogues penned by composers over centuries and across oceans fills a festival that rejoices in the splendor of chamber music and the joyful interaction of musicians.
