Paul Hindemith — String Quartet No. 4, Op. 22
Erich Wolfgang Korngold — Piano Quintet in E major, Op. 15
The exceptional young instrumentalists of the Kronberg Academy perform with one of the academy's renowned professors: violist Tabea Zimmermann, recently appointed chair of the Hindemith Foundation. Brahms's Clarinet Trio, here performed by viola, piano, and cello, is one of the composer's transcendent final works and a mainstay of the chamber music repertoire. Hindemith was a gifted violist as well as a highly innovative composer, and his fourth string quartet—a work of great contrasts—is arguably his most popular (though still a rare treat in concert). Korngold's Piano Quintet is a lavish and idiosyncratic early work, composed at the height of his popularity in Germany.
