Musical Masterworks Ends Season With Concert Today Featuring Music of Bach, Schubert & Taneyev

Edward Arron hosts and performs in this weekend’s Musical Masterworks concerts.

This April, renowned, world-traveling Musical Masterworks veterans will present a program of chamber music treasures to conclude our 27th Season.

Violinist Amy Schwartz Moretti and pianist Adam Neiman will begin the program with J.S. Bach’s Sonata No. 4 for violin and keyboard; then violinist Aaron Boyd and violist Dimitri Murrath will join Artistic Director Edward Arron for Schubert’s seldom-performed B-flat String Trio, an unusually intimate and elegant dialogue among three instruments. 

The finale will feature all five performers coming together to conclude the program – and season – with the titanic and soul-stirring Piano Quintet, Opus 30, by the Russian Romantic-era composer, Sergey Taneyev.

Musical Masterworks will be continuing its popular pre-concert talks before both concerts.  Concertgoers are invited to join Edward Arron one hour before each of the April concerts for an in-depth discussion about the composers and music featured that weekend:  Bach, Schubert and Taneyev.

The April concerts will be held on Saturday, April 28, at 5 p.m. and Sunday, April 29, at 3 p.m. at the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme.  Individual tickets are $40 and Student Tickets are $5.
