PROGRAM
Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center
Soul Garden: A constellation of six stars from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center visits Saint Paul Sunday this week to illumine seldom-heard music by Mozart and Dvořák—sextets that mine a richness and force of expression unavailable to smaller ensembles. We'll also hear Derek Bermel's "Soul Garden", a work based on the composer's own experience in the African-American gospel tradition and written for violist Paul Neubauer, who takes its lead role this Sunday. Joining him are violinists Ida Kavafian and Joseph Silverstein, violist Toby Appel, and cellists Fred Sherry and Ronald Thomas.

Like old friends...
It was a real treat to meet these members of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. The very first thing that struck me about them was their comfortableness with each other. Clearly old friends, they could joke around, give each other a hard time, but they're also really supportive of each other. (more)
