Three virtuosi musicians perform major piano trios by Beethoven, Arensky, and Mendelssohn. Featuring pianist Anne-Marie McDermott, violinist Tim Fain, and cellist Andrés Díaz.
Like the rarity of throwing a pair of sixes in a game of dice, this concert provides a rare opportunity to hear two major string sextets: “Souvenir de Florence” by Tchaikovsky and “String Sextet Concert in B-flat Major” by Brahms. The artists comprising the sextet include violinists Alexander Kerr and Felix Olschofka, violists Michael Klotz and Misha Galaganov, and cellists Edward Arron and Dmitry Kouzov.
