Drawing inspiration from Bright Sheng’s multi-hued musical palette, one of the most eclectic programs of the season gathers chamber music from four rich cultures. Pianist Inon Barnatan and cellist Alisa Weilerstein return to CMS for a premiere by Sheng. Enchanting French works from two eras, Martinů’s virtuosic “Madrigals,” and Arensky’s passionate Piano Trio complete the journey.

Pre-concert conversation with Garyth Nair and CMS Artists at 7:15 p.m.
Dvořák, more than any other composer before him, successfully brought the music of his homeland into the concert hall, blending folk tradition with art music. His works have endless, universal appeal, from his rollicking Slavonic Dances to the large-scale, fully realized Sextet in A major. Selected short piano works by fellow countryman Bedřich Smetana provide context and a glimpse at Dvořák’s musical roots.

Opp. 46 and 72 1878, 1886
String Sextet in A major, Op. 48 1878

”Russian classical music appeared less than two centuries ago, but although that Russian sound is relatively new, it is a sound most music-lovers recognize and feel to be old,” states Gerard McBurney in his essay on The Elusive Soul of Russian Music. Hear this unmistakable “old” sound in two epic pieces of the Russian repertoire, and in an authentic Russian voice of today—that of composer, pianist, and poet Lera Auerbach.
