ChamberFest Cleveland

Season 11: "Lightness of Being"

Mozart, Brahms, and Redemption

Wednesday, June 16 at 7:30 PM

Cultural Arts Center at Disciples Church

PROGRAM

Judith Weir Unlocked for Solo Cello

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Quintet for Piano and Winds

Johannes Brahms String Sextet No. 1

A spirit of spontaneity and fantasy of freedom infuses this enthralling program. Unlocked is a series of fantasias inspired by folk songs sung by Black prisoners from the 1930s. Of his quintet for piano and winds, Mozart said "I myself consider it to be the best thing I have written in my life," and his splendid tour de force is filled with a sense of ease and spontaneity. Melodious with moments of melancholy, pastoral themes sway and swirl and weave together over a German folk waltz, genial and refined, in a sunny Sextet by Brahms.
