Felix Mendelssohn — String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13
Mendelssohn – String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13
Dvořák’s – String Quintet in E-flat major, Op. 97
Members of Orchestra Seattle visit Ballard’s Hale’s Brewery to present the first of three chamber music concerts in unique venues. Violinists Alexander Hawker and Lily Shababi, violist Grant Hanner and cellist Roberta Rominger perform a Mendelssohn string quartet influenced by his study of the late Beethoven quartets and based in part on a song he had written about falling in love for the first time.
Dvořák’s Op. 97, composed while living in the United States, incorporates influences of Chippewa music, square dances, hoedowns, and Native American drumming; this performance features violinists Stephen Provine and Fritz Klein, violists Sam Williams and Katherine McWilliams, and cellist Matt Wyant.
The $25 ticket price includes one glass of wine or beer, with gratuity included on all drink redemptions and purchases. Just 60 seats available (purchase advance tickets); tickets will also be available at the door if any seats remain.
