The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in their Shaker Village residency. This program offers a delightful blend of passion, vitality, and elegance. It begins with Beethoven’s Spring Sonata, a bright and uplifting violin-piano duet that practically radiates optimism, evoking the fresh spirit and renewal of the spring season. Next, Lili Boulanger’s Three Pieces for Cello and Piano bring a touch of introspective beauty, while Tchaikovsky’s Pezzo capriccioso captivates with its mix of profound feeling and dazzling virtuosity. After intermission, the program builds to Fauré’s Piano Quartet No. 2, a deeply personal and dramatic work that lets the piano shimmer with delicate textures while the strings engage in a passionate interplay.
