Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Quartet in D major, K575
Dmitri Shostakovitch
Quartet No. 5 in B flat major, Opus 92
Johannes Brahms
Quintet for piano and strings in F minor, Opus 34
We have presented the Emerson throughout their outstanding career and take great pride in being one of their early sponsors. They continue to accumulate accolades; they have won nine Grammy Awards and have been inducted into the American Classical Music Hall of Fame. The program includes one of Mozart's late Prussian string quartets, one of the works featured on the Emerson's most recent recording. As a special bonus to all of us, they will be joined by celebrated chamber music collaborator Menahem Pressler for a performance of the Brahms piano quintet.
The four minds play upon each other, and upon the work, in perfect harmony; the players are in tune in all senses of the phrase. - New Yorker
Menahem Pressler’s joyous pianism-technically faultless, stylistically impeccable, emotionally irrepressible-is from another age and is a virtually forgotten sensibility. He is a national treasure. - Los Angeles Times
