Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Jordan Anderson

An enlightening concert: a barely known composer esteemed in his day, an instrument we rarely hear in Baroque concertos and an early classical work for four, yes, four soloists.

The second week of the Seattle Chamber Music Society's 2015 Summer Festival offered up an unusual juxtaposition of instrumental and vocal pieces, with a beautifully somber mood prevailing.

A trio, quintet, and septet add up to an impressive range of emotional and timbral explorations in the concluding concert of Seattle's summer chamber music festival.
