In the turbulent years surrounding World War I, artists created amidst a world in flux. The works presented here reflect the realities of that time, serving as the very foundation for this program's concept.
Respighi's Il Tramonto for Mezzo-soprano and String Quartet draws inspiration from Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem "The Sunset", with mezzo-soprano Jennifer Johnson Cano and string quartet bringing forth a delicate dialogue between music and verse. This interplay creates a serene yet layered atmosphere, evoking a sense of profound stillness.
Elgar's Piano Quintet in A minor, composed in his later years, is a work of profound structural integrity and emotional depth. Its resonating echoes feel like a whispered reflection on the past. Violinist Paul Huang and his close friends offer a nuanced interpretation that allows you to connect with the composer's inner emotions.
