“SIMPLY PUT, THEY’RE A KNOCKOUT! ...MONSTERS OF ABILITY AND TECHNIQUE SURELY. BUT ALSO CONVEYERS OF AN INFECTIOUS JOY THAT I FIND BOTH TOUCHING AND MOVING. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM....”

– SIR SIMON RATTLE

An entertaining mix of virtuosity and showmanship, the American trio performs music from Bach to Brahms and beyond — including their own arrangements of everything from bluegrass and folk tunes to ingenious mash-ups of hits by the Beatles, Kanye West, Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake and more. Let loose with these brilliant and innovative musicians.

DMITRI SHOSTAKOVICH: SOME POST-CENTENNIAL REFLECTIONS Lecture by Scholar-in-Residence Richard Taruskin

AUG 20

FORTY YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH, INTEREST IN THE WORKS OF RUSSIAN

COMPOSER AND PIANIST DMITRI DMITRIYEVICH SHOSTAKOVICH HAS

NEVER BEEN GREATER. A PROMINENT FIGURE OF THE 20TH -CENTURY,

HE COMPOSED AN ASTOUNDING VARIETY OF WORKS: 15 SYMPHONIES,

15 STRING QUARTETS, CHAMBER MUSIC FOR PIANO AND STRINGS,

CONCERTOS, SONG CYCLES, BALLETS, FILM SCORES AND TWO OPERAS.

THE MAGNITUDE OF HIS OUTPUT AND ITS DEPTH AND ORIGINALITY.



DMITRI SHOSTAKOVICH: SOME POST-CENTENNIAL REFLECTIONS Lecture by Scholar-in-Residence Richard Taruskin

SummerFest Music Director Cho-Liang Lin has artfully curated

three performances featuring Shostakovich’s chamber music with

an extraordinary collection of musicians, some of whom had

a personal connection with Shostakovich. These programs

represent the composer’s mastery and include one of his

earliest chamber music works, Piano Trio No. 1, Op. 8; his

final work, Sonata for Viola and Piano, Op. 147; and three

of his string quartets alongside other sonatas, trios,

octets and vocal works. Paired with each performance,

musicologist Richard Taruskin will deliver lectures

discussing the cultural, social and political influences

on the composer’s work.

Join us as we explore this iconic composer in

our three-concert immersion into the life and work

of Dmitri Shostakovich.
