SUMMARY:Dohnányi\, Beethoven & Schumann
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Robert Mann Chamber Music Series begins with a spotlight on the Festival’s own musicians. Dohnányi’s sextet brings together piano\, string trio\, clarinet\, and horn\, an uncommon combination which the composer uses to mischievous effect. Beethoven’s brief “Eyeglasses Duo” is so called for a friendly note between colleagues — both Beethoven and his cellist friend Nikolaus Zmeskall required spectacles — and its music is similarly conversational and good-humored. Schumann embedded some of his most aching and romantic music into his Piano Quartet\, a chamber gem of contrast and delight.

SUMMARY:Rite of Spring & Gluzman Plays Prokofiev
DESCRIPTION:Famous for inciting a riot at its 1913 premiere due to its cutting-edge compositional techniques\, Stravinsky’s Rite represents “the mystery and great surge of creative power of Spring.” BBC Music Magazine has praised violinist Vadim Gluzman’s performance of Prokofiev’s acerbic Second Violin Concerto as “a thing of great beauty.” This exuberant program opens with a spirited Short Ride in a Fast Machine\, of which composer John Adams asks\, “You know how it is when someone asks you to ride in a terrific sports car\, and then you wish you hadn’t?”

SUMMARY:Bruckner Bicentennial: Symphony No. 4
DESCRIPTION:“Look\, how brightly the universe shines! Splendour falls on everything around…” Schoenberg’s chromatic and stunningly beautiful Transfigured Night draws inspiration from a poem about a woman harboring a dark secret and the man who loves her enough to forgive her. 2024 marks Schoenberg’s 150th birthday\, as well as Bruckner’s 200th; this program continues the anniversary celebrations with some of the best-loved of Bruckner’s music\, his Fourth Symphony. The hunt is on in this “Romantic” Symphony\, which begins with daybreak and puts the horn section to work during its lively “Hunting of the Hare.” Music Director Peter Oundjian calls this inspired concert “the most beautiful program of the summer.”

SUMMARY:Schubert’s Strings & Nielsen’s Winds
DESCRIPTION:The Robert Mann Chamber Music Series continues by highlighting musicians from the Festival’s own ranks. One of the most beloved works ever written for wind quintet is this music by Carl Nielsen; he composed his Wind Quintet with five friends in mind\, and this warmth\, as well as the personality of each instrument\, shines through. Schubert’s sublime and romantic C major String Quartet is regarded as one of the greatest string quartets of any era.

SUMMARY:Gabriela Lena Frank’s World Premiere
DESCRIPTION:Be the first to experience a brand new concerto by Gabriela Lena Frank\, heralded as one of the most significant women composers in history by the Washington Post. Kachkaniraqmi (“I Still Exist”) was commissioned by the Festival and will be performed by Boulder’s Grammy-winning Takács Quartet as ensemble-soloist alongside the Orchestra. After intermission\, Joan Tower’s brilliant Concerto for Orchestra allows for great moments of individual virtuosity\, but ultimately it is the entire Orchestra that shines. “I had imagined a long and large landscape that had a feeling of space and distance\,” Tower says of her Concerto for Orchestra\, in which the music “travels a long road.” This program celebrates three generations of women composers and opens with Florence Price’s Adoration\, originally conceived for solo organ and performed here in its stunning arrangement for strings.

SUMMARY:Haydn\, Debussy & Mendelssohn
DESCRIPTION:The Robert Mann Chamber Music Series continues with a spotlight on the Festival’s own musicians. Haydn’s String Quartets achieved a new range of expression for secular music; his String Quartet C major\, Op. 20\, No. 2 is a diamond from start to finish. Debussy\, a master of impressionism and fantasy\, creates a quintessential dreamscape in his Sonata for Flute\, Harp\, and Viola. Instead of treating his string octet as two individual quartets\, Mendelssohn’s innovative Octet finds all eight musicians working tightly together in\, as the composer requested\, “symphonic orchestral style.”

SUMMARY:Awadagin Pratt + Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade
DESCRIPTION:Celebrated pianist Awadagin Pratt makes his Festival debut with music old and new\, beginning with Bach’s nimble Keyboard Concerto in A major. Pratt then performs a piece he commissioned from lauded composer Jessie Montgomery; her Rounds is inspired by an epic poem by T.S. Eliot and the opposing forces that appear in nature — “action and reaction\, dark and light\, stagnant and swift.” In Eastern folklore\, the princess Scheherazade told the cruel Sultan 1\,001 stories in order to save her own life; Rimsky-Korsakov borrows Scheherazade’s tales of royalty\, festivals\, sea voyages\, and more in his richly orchestrated fantasy.

SUMMARY:Augustin Hadelich & Dvořák 7
DESCRIPTION:Augustin Hadelich\, one of the greatest violinists of all time\, returns to perform Tchaikovsky’s unparalleled Violin Concerto. The deeply patriotic Dvořák wished to use his music to recognize the struggle and oppression of his fellow Czechs; he wrote of this urgent Seventh Symphony\, “What is in my mind is Love\, God\, and my Fatherland.” Kevin Puts’ Two Mountain Scenes\, composed “with the impressive backdrop of the Rocky Mountains in mind” and beginning with “the sonic illusion of a single trumpet reverberating across the valley\,” opens this wondrous program.

SUMMARY:Augustin Hadelich & Dvořák 7
DESCRIPTION:Augustin Hadelich\, one of the greatest violinists of all time\, returns to perform Tchaikovsky’s unparalleled Violin Concerto. The deeply patriotic Dvořák wished to use his music to recognize the struggle and oppression of his fellow Czechs; he wrote of this urgent Seventh Symphony\, “What is in my mind is Love\, God\, and my Fatherland.” Kevin Puts’ Two Mountain Scenes\, composed “with the impressive backdrop of the Rocky Mountains in mind” and beginning with “the sonic illusion of a single trumpet reverberating across the valley\,” opens this wondrous program.

SUMMARY:Mahler 4 & Ravel’s Shéhérazade
DESCRIPTION:Music Director Peter Oundjian continues his tradition of ending the season with glorious music by Mahler. The composer built his Fourth Symphony around his own song “The Heavenly Life\,” which borrows text from a Bavarian folk poem. “The angelic voices gladden our senses\,” the poem proclaims\, “so that everything awakens for joy.” Mahler’s sunniest symphony invokes bells\, harp\, and woodwinds; in keeping with the lightness of the work\, Mahler insisted the soprano perform “with childlike\, cheerful expression;” soprano Karina Gauvin joins the Festival in this role. This final concert of the season includes Ravel’s colorful twist on the Shéhérazade tales — again featuring Gauvin’s “glowing\, flexible tone” (Opera News) — and the overture to Strauss’ most famous and farcical operetta\, Die Fledermaus.

SUMMARY:Hélène Grimaud Plays Brahms
DESCRIPTION:“[Hélène] Grimaud doesn’t sound like most pianists\,” proclaims The New Yorker\, also calling her “a reinventor of phrasings” and “taker of chances;” here she opens the 2025 Festival season with Brahms’ monumental First Piano Concerto. Surrounding Brahms’ intense work are familiar showstoppers: Ravel’s famously unrelenting Boléro\, a dreamy suite from the ballet Daphnis et Chloé\, and fantastic musical fireworks by Stravinsky.

SUMMARY:Schubert\, Prokofiev & Brahms
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Robert Mann Chamber Music Series opens with a program highlighting the Festival’s own musicians. Schubert left his String Trio in B Flat\, D. 471 unfinished\, but its single complete movement is a Classical jewel full of spontaneity. Prokofiev’s dizzying Quintet in G Minor was originally written as a ballet based on Parisian circus life and features aggressive and ever-changing rhythms. Brahms’ Third Piano Quartet is at times unsettled; an autobiographical work for Brahms\, the music’s evolving moods reflect the composer’s own heartaches. \nNote: To create a more intimate experience\, the number of seats available for chamber concerts is different than for our orchestral concerts. All price levels\, including our lowest\, are available in the main section of the auditorium.

DESCRIPTION:Known for dominating international cello competitions\, Hayoung Choi possesses a talent not to be missed; here Choi performs Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme\, an elegant staple of cello repertoire. Guest conductor Maurice Cohn returns to the Chautauqua stage to lead Beethoven’s classically-styled First Symphony\, the symphonic debut that established the composer as the luminary we know him as today.

SUMMARY:Mozart & Dvořák
DESCRIPTION:The Robert Mann Chamber Music Series continues with a spotlight on the Festival’s own musicians. Mozart once considered his Quintet in E-Flat for Piano and Winds “the best work I have ever written;” its sense of spontaneity is beguiling. Dvořák’s Third String Quartet was one of his most successful compositions; like much of his most popular work\, Op. 97 is flavored with melodies and rhythms he heard while visiting America\, including various folk tunes and Native American drumming. The program begins with Nico Muhly’s minimalist Doublespeak\, which was written as a gift for composer Philip Glass’ birthday and teems with stylistic rhythms and repetitions.  \nNote: To create a more intimate experience\, the number of seats available for chamber concerts is different than for our orchestral concerts. All price levels\, including our lowest\, are available in the main section of the auditorium.

SUMMARY:Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3
DESCRIPTION:Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto finds the composer moving toward his own personal style\, displaying what would become his hallmark drama\, spirit\, and agitation; pianist Yeol Eum Son brings a “fearlessly fast articulation” (The Times) to the stage. Sofia Gubaidulina’s striking “Fairytale Poem” draws inspiration from a children’s story about creativity\, and its music is fittingly full of color. Guest conductor Ryan Bancroft conducts this dynamic program\, which also includes Shostakovich’s Tenth; written shortly after the Soviet dictator Stalin’s death\, this symphony is rife with terror\, passion\, and oppression — until one final\, hopeful ray of light.
