Brahms Piano Quintet for Piccolo

May 27 @ 6:00 pm - 7:15 pm

*this concert is from 6:00 PM to 7:15 PM. If you received our printed mailer, the time was incorrect on the handout. Apologies for any confusion!

A special Piccolo Spoleto and CLS treat: an evening sure to be rapturous in every aspect, the Charleston Library Society’s friends from the College of Charleston and the Charleston Symphony Orchestra come together to perform one of the greatest works in the chamber music repertoire, as part of Charleston’s annual Piccolo Spoleto. Composed in 1864-5, the quintet features sweeping melodies, rich textures, and showcases virtuosity around the ensemble. The strings will also perform Borodin’s ever-popular Nocturne from the second string quartet, loved by all for its expressive melodies and lush harmonies. 

Artists

Tom Hicks, (the new Director of Piano and Artistic Director of the International Piano Series at the College of Charleston) is joined by Yuriy Bekker (Artistic Director of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra), Alex Boissonnault, Seth Van Embden, and Benjamin Mekinulov to tackle this dramatic and emotionally charged work.
