Magisterra At The Museum: Milestones - Looking Back, Looking Forward
About this Event
Celebrate the grand finale of Magisterra Soloists’ 10th anniversary season with Milestones: Looking Back, Looking Forward, a concert that reflects on the ensemble’s beginnings while looking toward its future.
At the heart of this special program is Felix Mendelssohn’s beloved Octet, the work that marked the beginning of Magisterra Soloists. Returning to this extraordinary piece ten years later, the ensemble brings together Magisterra musicians and Fellows in a celebration of the artistic journey that has shaped the organization.
The program also features works by Dmitri Shostakovich and Johannes Brahms, offering a powerful reflection on the many musical voices and traditions that have inspired Magisterra throughout its history. Together, these works celebrate the past, present, and future of an ensemble dedicated to ambitious programming, artistic collaboration, and exceptional chamber music.
Join us for a memorable season finale as Magisterra Soloists looks back on a decade of music-making and forward to the next chapter.
