Palladium Chamber Series – Intimate Connection, Bold Expression: Schubert, Shostakovich, & Mendelssohn

Hough Concert Hall

Michael Francis leads a program connected by friendship. In Ravel’s Le Tombeau de Couperin, each movement aims to capture the essence of a friend he lost in World War I. Concertmaster Jeffrey Multer on violin and Principal Cello Yoni Draiblate team up for Brahms’ Double Concerto, composed as a peace offering to a longtime friend. It was Brahms’ final work. In Enigma Variations – including the emotional Nimrod movement — Elgar adapts an original tune into 14 musical caricatures of his friends.
