TICKETS + INFORMATION

A typically engaging program by the young musicians of Ensemble Connect. A string quartet by Eleanor Alberga, whose Jamaican upbringing tells. A Martinu chamber piece for the intriguing combination of clarinet, horn, cello, and drum that I don’t think I’ve heard before (I mean, the only person who ever heard everything that almost ridiculously prolific composer wrote was Martinu himself). Bach’s Fifth Brandenburg Concerto, which I don’t have to tell you is the one with long harpsichord cadenza. And something by Clara Schumann: if we have to listen to Late Romantic, thank you for making it something we haven’t heard a million times already.
