Pre-concert talk @7:00 PM
Grab your beret and a warm croissant and get in the spirit of this French-themed program that puts the harp front and center. Ravel’s Introduction and Allegro was commissioned to showcase the innovations by a French harp-making company. Delicate, light, and charming, Saint-Saën’s Fantaisie is virtuosic for both harp and violin. Chausson’s Piano Quartet is unmistakable in its French Romanticism, lyrical, bouyant, and lush.

Ernest Chausson | Piano Quartet in A major, Op. 30
