Enjoy the relaxing quality of Delius’s pieces, the delightful Latin rhythms of William Grant Still’s set of dances, and the musicality of HSO principal oboist Sarah Southard in the first half of this concert. The second half will delight you with Haydn’s playful and well-known “Surprise Symphony.”

This chamber music concert is a celebration of musical textures featuring the number three. It was inspired by Thomas Adès’ Sonata with its unusual instrumentation of oboe, horn, and harpsichord that combines a contemporary style with French Baroque flair. Adès wrote this work as an homage to Claude Debussy, thus providing the perfect link to Debussy’s exuberant and extremely popular Sonata. In between the two works, Franco Donatoni’s Small II lends a striking contrast. After an intense first half, the second half of the concert features more “classical” trios, so to speak, that are connected through the use of the piano. Unusually, however, these were written by the rarely performed composers Charles Koechlin, August Klughardt, and Eugène Goossens. These works are distinguished by profound, lavish, and distinct melodies that allow each instrument to showcase its vocal qualities.
