Great Chamber Music

Second City Chamber Series is a great organization that brings thoughtful chamber music programs to Tacoma.  They also perform their masterworks series in the Great Hall at Annie Wright.  I think this is one of the most perfect settings for chamber music.  It is like a large living room.  I love this intimate setting, where you can really see the musicians looking at each other, getting up close and feeling their energy and efforts.


Here is the information from their website:


Stravinsky: "Suite Italienne" for Violin and Piano
Schoenfield: Café Music
Piazzolla: The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires


Artistic Director Svend Rønning and friends perform a concert featuring "urban legends" of the world depicted in music. The Commedia dell'arte character of Pulcinella inspired Stravinsky to compose his famous ballet, transcribed here for violin and piano by the composer. Israeli/American composer Paul Schoenfield gives us a glimpse of the street musicians of Vienna, and Argentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla takes us on a meteorological journey of his home city of Buenos Aires...inspired by Vivaldi, of course!
Artists: Svend Rønning, violin; Richard Treat, cello; Jairo Geronymo, piano
