Deck the Halls with Chamber Music
Throughout the first two weeks of December, the halls at ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨ will be filled with chamber music! From December 1-14, ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨ presents its Winter Chamber Music Festival, featuring a series of student recitals, faculty recitals and master classes.
±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨ students of every instrument and configuration, from percussion and brass ensembles to students in ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨â€™s Intensive String Quartet and Advanced Piano Trio Programs, will showcase a semester’s worth of hard work. Concerts include programs of Béla Bartók, Dvořák, Schumman, Beethoven, Ravel and more. ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨â€™s Preparatory Chamber Music and Young Artist Program departments will also present chamber music recitals.
Additionally, ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨ welcomes guest artists, the Juilliard String Quartet, for master classes and a special guest concert in collaboration with the Cleveland Chamber Music Society. To top off an already incredible month of music making, ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨â€™s faculty and resident string quartet, the Cavani String Quartet, will be joined by ±ÆÁ¨±ÆÁ¨ guitar faculty Colin Davin, to perform a recital entitled, An Italian Serenade.
