Host

The Academy of St Martin in the Fields Chamber Ensemble was created in 1967 to perform the larger chamber works with players who customarily worked together, instead of the usual string quartet with additional guests. Drawn from the principal players of the orchestra and led by violinist Tomo Keller, the Chamber Ensemble performs in all shapes and sizes, from string quintets to octets, and in various other configurations featuring winds. Its touring commitments are extensive and include regular tours of Europe and North America, whilst recording contracts with Philips Classics, Hyperion, and Chandos have led to the release of over thirty CDs.

The program this evening will be:

Dmitry Shostakovich - Prelude and Scherzo (2 Pieces for String Octet), Op.11

  • Prelude [Прелюдия]
  • Scherzo [Скерцо]

Felix Mendelssohn - String Octet in E-flat major, Op. 20

  • Allegro moderato ma con fuoco
  • Andante
  • Scherzo: Allegro leggierissimo
  • Presto

Salon 58 is known for its intimate and exclusive musical events events with limited seats available ranging from chamber music and opera to jazz. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to witness the mesmerizing musical talents of NYC and beyond.
