Our 25th Anniversary Season continues with a concert featuring two works that evoke a clear sense of place. Although it was written amidst what he described as the “lovely hot hot days” of summer, Edward Elgar’s Piano Quintet in A Minor is anything but summery. Inspired by an ominous grove of bare trees in the English countryside, this work is by turns eerie, achingly nostalgic, and, eventually, jubilant. Equally rustic in inspiration is AntonĂn Dvořák’s String Quintet in E-flat Major, a work that resulted from a summer stay in Spillville, Iowa. This vibrant quintet, dubbed the “American,” combines Dvořák’s signature Czech style with plenty of new world influence. These monumental works are complemented by a pair of beloved miniatures by Elgar and Dvořák in a concert featuring pianist Sahun Sam Hong, violinists Xiao-Dong Wang and Stephanie Zyzak, violinist/violist Ara Gregorian, violist Hsin-Yun Huang, and cellist Marcy Rosen.
