Reflecting Upon Classics
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
The internationally renowned Brentano String Quartet begin their tenure as CMNW’s 2021-22 Artists-in-Residence merging their “luxuriously warm sound and yearning lyricism” (The New York Times) with the dark expression of Haydn and Barber on the first half of this program. The Chien-Kim-Watkins Trio, consisting of CMNW Artistic Directors Gloria Chien and Soovin Kim, and Paul Watkins of the Emerson Quartet, makes its CMNW debut with Brahms’s glorious
C major piano trio.
