PS 25 - Brahms Piano Quintet at the Charleston Library Society
Tue, May 27 at 6pm
Friends from the College of Charleston and the Charleston Symphony Orchestra come together to perform one of the greatest works in the chamber music repertoire.
Tom Hicks, (the new Director of Piano and Artistic Director of the International Piano Series at the College of Charleston) is joined by Yuriy Bekker (Artistic Director of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra), Alex Boissonnault, Seth Van Embden, and Benjamin Mekinulov to tackle this dramatic and emotionally charged work.
Composed in 1864-5, the quintet features sweeping melodies, rich textures, and showcases virtuosity around the ensemble. The strings will also perform Borodin’s ever-popular Nocturne from the second string quartet, loved by all for its expressive melodies and lush harmonies.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear the greatest music performed by friends and for friends at the Charleston Library Society!
