Événement diffusé en streaming: Curtis Chamber Orchestra with Erin Keefe, violin & Roberto Díaz, viola

Barber’s beloved Adagio for Strings and Leonard Bernstein’s string orchestra arrangement of Beethoven’s F-Major String Quartet, Op. 135 bookend this lovely program from Curtis Chamber Orchestra.

Reflecting on the Beethoven, classical music critic David Patrick Stearns wrote, “the sound of massed strings gives the music a grandeur always implied but never realized by conventional string quartet performances.” Acclaimed violinist and Minnesota Orchestra concertmaster Erin Keefe and viola royalty Roberto Díaz join the ensemble for Mozart’s sunlit Sinfonia Concertante – an ideal showcase for these two outstanding soloists.
