SUMMARY:Brahms’ Personal Favorite: Viola Quintet in F
DESCRIPTION:Brahms’ Viola Quintet in F might not be considered his most famous chamber work\, but it was his own personal favorite\, writing to his publisher\, Simrock\, upon submission\, “You have never before had such a beautiful work from me!” Following the example of Mozart\, he added a second viola to a string quartet and created a spirited work of bright cheerfulness that features a radiant first movement\, a stately and deeply expressive slow movement and a powerful finale that has been described by critics as the “crown of this work\, a magnificent masterpiece.” The program opens with a charming work by a Mozart contemporary\, Antonin Vranický\, that also features two violas\, as well as flute and oboe. A sublimely meditative Sarabande from the ‘Phantasy Quintet’ of the English master\, Ralph Vaughn Williams\, completes the offerings. \nThe North Country Chamber Players have adopted a “Pay-What-You-Wish” ticket pricing for concerts. Seating is limited\, so attendees are asked to make free online reservations.\nThe recommended ticket price is $25\, payable at the door\, but there is no minimum ticket price required for entry.

SUMMARY:Glory of Bach – Brandenburg Concertos\, Featuring Kenneth Weiss\, Harpsichord
DESCRIPTION:Three hundred years after they were written\, Bach’s Six Concertos for multiple instruments stand as a monument of instrumental music.\nDuring the Baroque Era\, for the wealthy\, the Concerto Grosso was a popular music genre.

D. Q. Bach: String Quartet in F Major “The Moose” S.Y2K \nJ. S. Bach: Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 \nBrandenburg Concerto No. 4 \nBrandenburg Concerto No. 5 \n  \nThe North Country Chamber Players have adopted a “Pay-What-You-Wish” ticket pricing for concerts.

SUMMARY:Summer Serenade
DESCRIPTION:The earliest serenades were usually sung at night to express love and devotion.\nThis tradition continued through the Baroque and Classical periods\, but really reached its pinnacle with the sophisticated multi-movement works of the Romantic era performed for larger audiences.
