Chesapeake Music celebrates its 40th Anniversary Chamber Music Festival with one of the most exciting rosters and programs to date!
Discover Haydn’s Quartet in F Major “Apponyi,” arranged by Peggy Pearson for oboe in place of a violin, a work that is in turn virtuosic, elegant, and lyrical. Experience the art of clarinetist Lawrie Bloom in Mozart’s sublime Clarinet Quintet in A Major, although written in a particularly unhappy period in Mozart’s life. The concert closes with Mendelssohn’s Piano Trio No. 1 in D Minor, which has become one of his most popular chamber works and was declared by Robert Schumann as “the master trio of our time.”
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.
