Celebrating Schumann

演出简介



CCM concludes the 2009‐2010 subscription series on the eve of Robert Schumann's 200th birthday (born June 8, 1810) with the CCM debut performance of Schumann's Piano Quintet in E‐Flat Major, Op. 44 — one of the most famous piano quintets in the canon.

Brahms, Schumann's protégé, was inspired to write his clarinet trio by the virtuosity of clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld (to be performed by CCM's own Larry Combs). Bartók's third String Quartet rounds out the program with its volatile high spirits and palpable desolation — a fitting tribute to the genius and madness of Robert Schumann.

"For musicians and listeners, the intimacy and directness of chamber music offers an island of creativity and tranquility." — Joseph Genualdi
