Fantastic Tales at The Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center

August 2 @ 7:00 pm

Thomas Adès, Efe Baltacigil, Diana Cohen, Stefan Dohr, Eleni Katz, Erin Keefe, Alexi Kenney, Anthony Marwood, Blake Pouliot, Roman Rabinovich, Masumi Per Rostad, Mark Simpson

Fantasy and legend abound in the first of our intermission-free Wednesday concerts highlighting and illuminating the cornerstones of the chamber music repertoire. Schumann’s immensely popular and fanciful piano quintet and fantasy-pieces bookend Janáček’s quirky miniature piano concerto, based on imaginary animal encounters, as well as the U.S. premiere of fairy-tale pieces for violin and piano by our season’s composer-in-residence, Thomas Adès—one of the most important and celebrated composers, pianists, and conductors today (and our music director’s favorite living composer!).

After each Wednesday concert, ticketholders over 21 enjoy a complimentary glass of Champagne with us to celebrate our 37th SummerFest!
