SUMMER CONCERT | ChamberMusicBox

Two of the greatest chamber works ever written, side by side. Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet, radiant and lyrical, broke new ground with its warmth and intimacy. Nearly a century later, Brahms—at the twilight of his career—returned to the same combination, creating a profound and autumnal masterpiece. Heard together, these kindred works reveal a deep affinity across time, celebrating the clarinet’s unique voice in dialogue with strings. In the hands of acclaimed American clarinettist, Matthew Nelson, and the outstading players of ChamberMusicBox, this concert promises to be a wonderful end to our season which we will toast with a post-concert drink!
