David Perry Leads Mendelssohn Octet - and More!

Mendelssohn’s masterpiece is thrilling under David Perry’s leadership. Young Mendelssohn’s friendship with the elderly Goethe inspired this romantic triumph. It is paired with an equally impressive discovery, the Octet by Woldemar Bargiel, the brother-in-law of Clara Schumann and a composer much admired by Brahms. Be prepared - the electricity will be palpable.
