This installment of the Robert Mann Chamber Series begins with Mozart’s jaunty First Flute Quartet, followed by the brief but profound Movement for String Trio by Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson. Dvořák’s complex Terzetto in C, written for two violins and viola, begins with lyrical sweetness and develops gorgeous drama along the way. The autumnal feeling behind Brahms’ lauded Clarinet Quintet ends this program with a stunning sunset of music.

- “Mr. Mann — for decades the [Juilliard String Quartet]’s de facto spokesman, institutional memory and ‘resident spark plug,’ as The Chicago Tribune called him in 1997 — remained with the ensemble for 51 years. By the time he retired in 1997 he had outlasted the entire original lineup, as well several subsequent permutations, to become one of the longest-serving members of any chamber group in the world.” Read more of the New York Times’ obituary for Robert Mann, for whom our chamber series is named
