Chamber Concert 4: Finale

Chamber Concert 4: Finale

July 25, 2025 - 7:30 PM

The Festival Artists return to the Harold J. Miossi CPAC for the final chamber concert of the summer. Lesser known Austrian composer Thuille is best remembered for his sextet for piano and winds, which opens this program. Then we will hear Bridge's Piano Quintet and Dorothy Rudd Moore's Three Pieces. Finishing the program is Mendelssohn's Viola Quintet, one of the final pieces he composed which was not published until four years after his death because he deemed it "not good."
