Hello Friends,
We are delighted to invite you to the Opening Concert of Chamber Music Society of St. Louis with “Open Strings”, marking the start of an extraordinary musical journey for Season 16!
Please join us Monday evening for “Open Strings”, an evening of captivating music by Beethoven, Borodin, Mozart and one of the most popular works we have ever performed, Mendelssohn’s Octet for Strings.
Musicians performing Monday are Xiaoxiao Qiang, Jessica Cheng Hellwege, Jesse Chen, Hannah Ji, Alejandro Valdepeñas, Chris Tantillo, Susan Gordon, Bjorn Ranheim and Davin Rubicz.
The Prelude portion will feature a performance by our student musicians of the Lyra String Quartet, Zoe Baldwin, Hayden Baker, Reid Huntley and Sylvia Kennedy.
Celebrate the power of music with us in our cabaret-style seating while enjoying a beverage from STL Barkeep at your table. There are just a few seats left so secure your tickets soon. We look forward to sharing the music with you.
Want to have some irreverent fun with music? Tune your radio or navigate your browser to Classic 107.3 for our final The Chamber At Home broadcast of the season on Saturday at 5pm and repeated on Monday at 10am.
This week’s encore concert is “A Frivolous First”. As I warned the audience that night…I take no responsibility for what went on in the performance.
Happy listening,
Marc
