    Description

    Chesapeake Music celebrates its 40th Anniversary Chamber Music Festival with one of the most exciting rosters and programs to date!

    The concert opens with Mendelssohn’s moving String Quintet No. 1 in A Major, a tribute to his teacher and friend, violinist Eduard Rietz. Next comes the stunning Trio in E Minor for Flute, Cello and Piano by Louise Farrenc, one of the most celebrated piano virtuosos and composers of her era, and the only woman to work for the Paris Conservatory in the 19th century. The Juilliard String Quartet will close the concert with a captivating rendition of Smetana’s highly autobiographical String Quartet No. 1 “From My Life,” a work capturing in turns his youthful love of dance, Czech culture, the girl he would marry, and ultimately the health tragedy that would overtake him.

    General Admission tickets are $70; six concerts can be purchased for the price of five through a subscription package ($350). Chesapeake Music also offers a limited number of free tickets for students, music educators, and Talbot County First Responders, as well as a “buy-one-get-one” option for first-time patrons of Chesapeake Music.
