| CHAMBER MUSIC IN PROGRESS…PROGRESSING!___ ______________ |
DZFE is happy to announce that the concert mounted for our benefit by Clarion Chamber Ensemble is back on track.
 Chamber Music in Progress: The Concert was postponed last September owing to a family emergency that befell a CCE Member.
The Cultural Center of the Philippines, in cooperation with the Clarion Chamber Ensemble, with the participation of DZFE, invites the music-loving public to a guided sampling of chamber music’s many possibilities.
Presenters of DZFE will join the Clarion Chamber Ensemble and guest soloist, soprano Joanna Go, in offering a vivid program of chamber music and
annotation.
The kaleidescopic Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F, BWV 1047 of JS Bach (1685-1750), and the festive Capriccio Espagnol of Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) arranged for chamber ensemble, are the departure and final destination points on an itinerary that includes music from the Piano Quintet in A major, D. 66 “Trout” of Franz Schubert (1797-1828), the Septet in B-flat of Ludwig Thuille (1861-1907), the Piano Quintet of Antonio Molina (1894-1980), and the Elizabethan Songs of Dominic Argento (b. 1927).

Following the survey of Mozart and his 27 Piano Concertos, Russell Brandon next takes on the next most important composer for this medium, namely Ludwig van Beethoven.
 Russell says, “It would be fair to say that Beethoven , in turn inspired the era of the Romantic Piano Concerto which followed.” The series will cover Beethoven’s five piano concertos, together with the Triple Concerto, as well as the five piano concertos of Saint-Saens, four piano concertos of Rachmaninov, plus the single concerto of Dvorak and of Scriabin.
Beethoven & Romantics airs Wednesdays at 2000 and Saturdays at 1400.
